Thank you Mr France. I like your videos very much. THe photography is excellent. I enjoy the sound of you just working. No music, no endless chatter, just the sound of a master craftsman doing a beautiful work of art. Subbed a long time ago and look forward to your next upload. Thank you for taking the time and effort to put your videos up to share with us all. Been doing leather myself off and on since high school back in the 1950’s. I’m not near the craftsman you are but still enjoying making a few things for friends and family.
Just so you know we have something in common. Our left pinky finger. All true artiesian people have some little defect in their left hand. I'm not kidding you. Great tutorial. Always a pleasure to see your work. Blessings on ya my friend. Stay safe and healthy. Again, blessings on you and yours.🤠
Thank you for the video. I just purchased a round knife off Terry Knipschield. I think I am going to use this case to put it in. Does your glue dry out in that pot you use? Jim
Do you mean the double line creaser? It's a Horseshoe Brand Tool (Jeremiah Watt) Part of a set of three called the HSBT-Russell Tools www.ranch2arena.com/russeelltool.html
Generally, what would you use a knife that big for? I love the old round knife I found (its about 4"), but do you have a specific task you'd do with a knife like that?
It's much easier to skive with a large round knife than a small one, so I bought it for that, but now I like it so much I use it for almost everything.
Bak Draft I don’t know Mr France personally but I can appreciate his work as a master craftsman. Gust guessing I’d say he has at least 25 plus years experience so just watch and you will learn much from him without him saying a word.

That’s the best one I’ve seen. Fantastic job!
Even more stunning than the last!
Good tools, the Rolls Royce for leatherwork, Blanchard. Wo you have an awesome workshop, real art
Turned out beautiful!
I think a popular video would be a "shop tour" of your shop and tools. Nice videos. Subbed.
*Your stamp work is gorgeous.*
I thank you for the tutorial, I just made it for my round knife, turned out super! Thanks again

Outstanding work. One question though. Did you case or dampen the leather prior to craving and stamping?
It's a great salmon cutting knife used usually in Alaska= Ulu Knife.
What round over edger are you using been looking for good round profile edger nice work like your tool rack nice use of scraps
AMAZING WORK. Thanks for replying about making another video. What's the model number of the dresser you used?
I meant creaser
Do you mean the double line creaser?

Awesome, Now I see why you made it so sturdy to put on the wall. Looks great. What is the finish? Oil?
Thanks for your comment, the finish is just pure neatsfoot oil.
Very nice

That was very thick leather to sew thru maybe 12 ml, fantastic job, hope the round knife is good for you, couldn't make out the makers name?
The round knife is a large Vergez Blanchard from France.
What did you put on the leather to make it so dark ?
Sehr schön welche Stärke hat das Leder
Nice one!! Can you please tell me what was the oil that you used at the end? I think it was an oil...
Thanks!
Neatsfoot oil pure
buen trabajo me gusta
Do you have a website?

Just some scraps of Herman Oak saddle skirting
Oh OK cool thank you

Молоток !!!!!!

Great work, can you tell me what backround tool you used?
On this I think I used a small Barry King bar grounder
How long you been working with leather?
a few years off and on
Really a few years well you do great work. Thanks for the videos I enjoy watching a master at work.
He is being humble. He is a master saddler with over 30 years experience.....
NOT a Gdam word? Lame
Bak Draft a master dose not have to say anything......
