About my belts
The basics
My belts come in three common widths: 1.25” (men’s dress belts, women’s belts, children’s belts), 1.5" (Most common width for men’s belts,
or a wider women’s belt), and 1.75” (A less common men’s and women’s tactical/range belt). I build them all with two layers of high-quality leather which is first bonded, then stitched together around the entire border. I will vary the thickness of the belt depending on type and what it is being used for. If it will be worn with a suit, I will make the belt thinner (8/9oz ~1/8” total thickness) than I would for my casual/everyday or tactical wear belts (12/14oz ~3/16” total thickness). My double layered belts are tough and won't stretch or bend like cheaper, mass-produced belts do. Therefore, it will last much much longer, and you’ll be very happy you paid for the quality craftsmanship.
You get to choose the colors for both the outside and inside liner strap as well as the stitching. This allows for a gorgeous color combination that ranges from subdued to wild, and everything in-between.
The buckles
You have several options for buckles. You can choose my standard single or double pronged buckle, a ratcheting style buckle, or you can provide your own.
My prong buckles come direct from an American factory, and are solid brass with whatever finish you'd like plated over. These are the best quality buckles you can buy and the finish won’t tarnish or wear off like cheaper, more common buckles.
My ratcheting belts use an inlaid track system that allows for 1/4" adjustments. It doesn't require belt holes, but requires a ratcheting style buckle. I use Kore Essentials and Mission Brand buckles exclusively, as there are no other ratcheting buckle brands that come close to their quality.
I use Chicago screw hardware at the buckle end, meaning you can change out buckles later down the road if you'd like.
The badassery
What really sets my belts apart are my custom options. You can have numbers, phrases, names, initials, or logos stamped onto the inside or outside strap. If you want color I can hand paint your stamping. I can hand-carve designs into the leather, or do a form of stitching or pattern you'll never see anywhere else. I can do inlaid exotic skins or contrasting leather.
You have endless possibilities of fur, exotic leathers, or reptile skins that can
be inlaid between the two belt layers. I keep a wide variety of inlay options on-hand, and work with several distributors of ethically sourced skins and furs from around the world. I can provide photos of what I have on-hand, or find what you are looking for through my exotic materials suppliers.

About my sheaths
The basics
My knife sheaths are where my hobby began. I can create something for your knife, sword, hatchet, or axe. Think of how you would like to carry it. I can make belt loops, paddle-style (like a holster) belt loops, steel belt clip, scout carry (horizontally worn on your belt), pocket clip, pocket slip, cross-draw, and belt dangler type attachment. Do you want a snap to keep it in the sheath, or do you want me to mold the leather to the knife and allow friction to retain the blade? All things to think about, and I can do any of the above.
The blades
Because I only do custom work, I will need your blade in-hand while I build your sheath. My quality control standard is a knife sheath won't leave my shop where the knife "just doesn't quite fit right." So I will build your leather around the blade. I have a modest collection of knives, so if I happen to have the same one, you won't have to send yours. If you plan on purchasing a knife, axe, etc., and you know you will want a custom sheath for it, you can have it shipped direct to my shop as well.
Lastly, I've done a few restoration projects to bring old leather back to life, so you can send an old sheath to me to be rejuvenated too.

Want cobra skin, deer fur, ostrich, kangaroo, or other skin inlaid into your sheath?
