Bronze Brass Ho Bead

The Bronze Brass Ho Bead is a bead. This is a unique piece. It is made by me, using all hand tools. It is hung on Camo paracord. As is true with all of my work, it is built to last. It is 3 5/8″ long, it is made of: a brass center bead and […]

Andy’s Knipper

When brother Andy, a hard working (outside) kinda man saw my Knipper, he wanted one. Told me straight out, I want one. It took awhile for him to come up with the scratch, but I stashed one of the original Stag horn Knippers away for him. Well, payday came, overtime in hand – and Andy got his […]

The Beady Skunk Skangler

The Beady Skunk Skanlger is a keychain dangler, or a fob dangler, or whatever the hell you want it to be kind of dangler. This is a unique piece. It is made by me, using all hand tools. The wire is thick and tough, the skulls tough, the bead tough. As is true with all […]

The Carved Knipper

This is the Carved Knipper. It’s a collaboration. The Sheath is made by me, the beautiful blade, by Terry Knipscheid, a super talented and wonderful man, located in MN. I had this idea for a EDC – every day carry -sized blade and knew of Terry through some work he’d done for me (making me […]

the snoof change thing

The Snoof is a construction of my own design, riffed off of an old standard turn of the century coin purse. The outside is a great super mellow natural veg tan, which i left alone -unusual for me. This is one clean unit.

The Summer Knipper Series

Summer is well underway. I like Summer, the weather is nice, the bikes beckon, we BBQ, we go to the beach, we eat, drink and be merry, we go to the pool, whatever,  and the shop is hot. For me, a hot shop is tougher to work in than a cold shop. I can always […]

Hello April

Jenna’s tiny Fin: a Happy Story

This is one of those stories that my close family and friends are not going to believe. They aren’t going to believe it because I exercised HUGE patience, found some restraint and dug down deep to find a sense of humor in it all, and once I did- it was all good. So, long story […]

Good news from Goose

Goose writes: Steve, You have truly outdone yourself!  I picked up the new wallet and belt today and am very happy with how much fine detail is in every inch.  The added details of the pennies with my year of birth, the  combination of stamps, and the subtle color variations are  great details that really […]

Mr. Crabs, the Butterfly Change Dish/ Valet by steveb leatherworks

   OK, leather fans, I have something for you to consider – the Front Door Key/Change Dish/ Valet. When you come in your front door – what do you do? Do you dump your keys, phone, sunglasses in a drawer, leave them on a table top, put ’em in a dish (my households solution) or […]
