Hello and Intro - from Breaking Bad, NM

Hello Everyone, I recently purchased the subscription - my never ending journey to learn. I have a "dayjob" to funds my passion and learning. My Passion began about 10years ago with silversmithing, which turned into a love for working with metal. That love has evolved to knife making, where I use my jewelery skills to create beauty. My knife making has lead to leatherwork - in regards to sheaths and knife rolls. When I began with silver & gold, my work was basic but I enjoyed solving more complex creations. My knifemaking has also evolved from basic knife blades and handles to works of craftsmanship that I am proud to share and sell. I hope that my leatherwork will also get to that level. I joined a couple of weeks ago...and I didnt realize what I didnt know....even with the basic bags, sheaths, rolls that I have made. I have made my own skiving knives.....and now...after using - realize some areas where the designs were good...and where I can improve the design. I love tools...but have learned that quality tools produce quality finished products - there are areas where one must not choose least expensive.

I look forward to learning and interacting with you all.

Thank You Philip. I am enjoying the videos so far. I especially like the 'extra' steps and tips for the luxury look / feel and detail. I absolutely believe that small details matter in any craftsmanship! Out of curiosity, is ALL of your stitching done by hand? I do use both hand and machine stitching, but I do find that machine lacks the detail for fine leathers
