Making a wallet you can't buy

- This task was a special project planned with subscriber. Rolfs (Amity) has been a huge leather brand loved for over 100 years. It is a brand that young people do not know well these days because it is out of business now. There are people who can't throw away old things. Because they remember its value. I hope you can feel the nostalgia of that time with this video.

I wrote it in the subtitles, but a lot of people keep asking. Stamping is correct. Celine has four children have Dan in their name. So It's a kind of family joke. "Four Dan Love Dad" is her final decision.
I understand now!! Thanks for the explanation.
Thanks I was puzzled
Very glad that it wasn't some weird lost in translation thing.
excelent work!
I was just about to do some ball busting for the misspelling!! lol
You know that the craftsman is highly skilled when he teach you the whole process and still you can't reproduce it completely. Thanks for sharing!
Thank a mil!!
This is so heartwarming from every person involved. The person who gifted the wallet 30 years ago, the one who held on to that wallet for 30 long years, and the one who carefully re-crafted it after 30 years hoping for 30 more years of the wallet memory! Kudos!
Watching this reminds me of when I bought this beautifully well kept wallet that had to be around 77 years old at the time back in 2016 at an antique shop my uncle owned. I love anyhing vintage from clothes to cars to music so I was ecstatic when I found and purchased the wallet. When I was putting my stuff from my previous wallet to the new (old) wallet I stumbled across a paper folded many times in one of the compartments. It was a hidden compartment so it probably was missed when it was being cleaned out to be put up for sale. Expecting a receipt of some sort to reveal itself but instead I stumbled on an old TTC bus schedule for July 23, 1954. I have the schedule laminated and displayed along with my other little findings including an original piece of film from the movie Young Frankenstein which I bought from a trip to NYC.
Anyways, as someone who loves wallets this was cool to watch. Really enjoyed it and you have some real talent.
film will degrade if exposed to UV, keep it somewhere dark
@@lilBabyBornInCalifornia If it is developed, it won't be photosensitive anymore, as long as it is not in direct sunlight it will be just fine.
If it wasn't developed, it'd have gone blank the first moment he exposed it to the light.
Funny I had two great finds from the Paris flea market. Back when 'vintage' meant just second hand and wasn't chic I bought a beautiful snakeskin handbag with gold lock, fab quality for almost nothing and inside was the lady's whole life, her visiting cards, bank details, accounts, door codes, everything but from the 60's so no longer viable. I have kept her visiting card as a souvenir. Another find was a black evening purse bought again for almost nothing, it had a gorgeous clasp. Inside was over 30,000 old french francs in huge notes, worthless as currency but a lovely find. Now 'vintage' purses are expensive. I had almost 600 vintage purses at one point, all bought for pennies. I actually use a canvas cross body bag bought for one euro, hands free style ! Love your story
It’s pronounced FRANKENSTEIN
laminated? oof, that sucks
Never would have guessed that I’d get choked up watching a wallet being made.
Dude
@@macdietz I got choked up, too.
That was the way of me becoming leather craftsman. Just watched some videos on youtube and then...
@@kotmorkovniy2924and then he fell in love with a cow, but was secretly plotting to skin it and see what happens if he enabled it to heal and then skin it again to later sell the meat and use the two types of skin to make weird leather.
here people are talking of how wonderful that man used the wallet for 30 years without loosing it, but here i am wondering what the hell he did to keep the marriage for 30 years without falling apart. they both sounds like soul mates. please stay happy and safe for many more years
1 Potential answer is:
They are not american, since here in the EU divorces are less common than in the USA.
@@darknessblades money in the wallet is american currency
It's not that hard, really. They were in love. We have four children and we almost made it to year 30... Sadly, she passed away. I am broken.
@@dagthewog6290 sorry for your loss man, remember that even though it feels like you're alone in this, trust me, you're walking in other million peoples shoes. Stay strong man, wish you the best 💪🏻
@@stavebnifirmapikr9129 Thank you.
Love how you’ve also made the patterns freely available, to keep this design alive for anyone else who wants to make it or even if another company takes it on.
I've watched this video five times and I learn something each viewing. I had an identical Rolf's wallet 45 years ago in college. Used it until it fell apart. Wonderful reproduction and I am sure a better build. Thanks for the memories.
You’re an excellent craftsman and a competent video creator at the same time. You never cease to amaze with your work and attitude.
You made my day !
@@HahnsAtelier And you made mine - superb work! I loved those preliminary sketches - any chance of an upload?
@@harrychoke and you made mine too. Can't buy this kind of wallet. Can't find this kind of story.
* In the whole World
What a superb skill 👏👏👏 enjoy the video so much, thanks so much for sharing and hope i can be like you 🙏
The wallet every man wants and can never find, Perfection.
Took the word out of my mouth.
Honestly though
In what weird place you guys live?! I'm sure it was well-made, but there's nothing special about this wallet. It's a pretty standard design, you can find one identical to it anywhere.
@@Rapha2587 took words out of my mouth lady says she cant find one anywhere like it my ass lmao
@@Rapha2587 can I have a link to a wallet then?
This is just leather making, why im crying 😭
I can really see the sentimental value this couple have on this wallet, memories that keep them together. I am very touched on how this man kept a wallet in tact for so many years, he could probably afford many but chose not to replace it.
Lol he knows exactly what pisses people off.
"You can't buy this"
he meant it's not available anywhere for sale anymore. now that he has templates I'm sure he'd be willing to make it for someone else, though may have to alter something if someone still owns the design copywriter or something
Just make it.
@@muffemod do you have all the tools and materials? If so I would like to pay for a custom wallet
Most things can't be bought.
@@nobodynoone2500 if thats what you think, you don't have enough money then
I never appreciated the complexities involved in the making of such a wallet... till now; so many stages that have to come together perfectly. I'm fully absorbed watching a master craftsman at work...
This was so bomb. Just incredible, your talent is unmatched. I've made lots of things, but the wallet is one of the hardest and most time consuming, each step is a matter of millimeters, there is just no room for error. For it to be magical (as you've done here) it must be light weight, slim, yet supple and sturdy. Truly a keepsake.
Thanks for the kind words!
@@HahnsAtelier
Hi what is the cost of wallet you did here?
Rolf"s!!! Loves me some Rolf's.
That was the height of suburban America in the latter half of the 20th century. I worked in a leather goods store in the mall in high school in 1987 and totally recognize that design. In English it would be called a billfold instead of a wallet because of the lack of a closure (35 years later i still remember some of the things I learned at that job.
Your recreation is a beautiful tribute. Well done.
I would love to see a follow up video with the husband's reaction to getting the wallet!
Everything about this video is a gift. The wallet is a gift to the recipient and to customer. Your visible love for the craft, and sharing the story, is a gift to all of us watching. And your craftsmanship is mostly definitely your gift. Thank you so much for sharing. Your customer and her family must be delighted bbeyond words. You have golden hands and a golden heart :)
Now I understand why wallets are as exensive (or even more expensive) than some bags. So much detail and small pieces!
the best part to me is,knowing how much they still love each other for all those years,and this heart warming event will be preserved for years to come too, i'm so happy that you made that wallet, now the wallet is in the hands of the owner who will cherish it forever becouse it made out of love, and I was one of the lucky ones among 7 billion people who can see the process
Your craftsmanship is so fascinating. Everything was done with "the touch" that not every craftsman inherit within them. I enjoyed watching this one. I'm filled with fascination.
I'm so glad to hear that!
Aside from the emotional impact upon many of us, I simply must say what a joy it was watching you work. As one ages, fingers are not as deft as they were once upon a time. Thanks to you on many levels, may all things go well for you.
you can really tell when someone is passionate about their line of work. amazing job and how wonderful that you were able to give them this gift 💕
Thank you for taking on this custom. I've had my wallet for 22 years, still not falling apart yet, but also cannot find one that I like, to replace it. Amazing work!
Your videos are so satisfying to watch. I love the ASMR aspect, but my favorite is the visual puzzle making: watching you plan, choose materials, cut, shape, glue, sew, shape more, glue more, sew more, et voilà! A gorgeous wallet!
I loved Rolf wallets!!! I had a long zip around wallet about 10 years ago or so and I still remember how perfect it was. Leather was sooooo soft. Awesome video! So cool you brought back something someone was so fond of.
As I watched your video, remembrance came to me of my father's billfold. I too had one when I was young (70 now), The quality and care of things made these days is not the same as what you showed here... as "back in the day" when people actually cared about the quality of their work. Thank you for sharing YOUR quality skills.
What an incredibly heartwarming, wholesome, and beautiful gift. Filled with love and devotion from a woman who saw how much her husband cherished not only the wallet, but no doubt, the fact that it was a gift from his devoted and thoughtful wife. You’ve done this couple a great service. Bless you and your business for as long as you desire to be in operation. You are a true master and artist in your craft. This touches my heart on many different levels. Thank you!
Wow. "Hahns Atelier: Putting the Art back in Artisan." Nicely done, sir.
I clapped my hands out loud at just how good this is, I love watching this, as a hands on guy myself, naturally this just resonates with me.
Most people would overlook this, but I appreciate you lining up all the rhythmic elements of the video with the music. I can tell you pay just as much attention to detail in your editing as in your workmanship
watching this is like watching k-drama love story. Would be perfect to have hear how your client reacted to the gift. its like a k-drama with an open ending.
Великолепная работа большого художника и профессионала! Оторваться от просмотра невозможно. Спасибо за огромное удовольствие!
You know, things like this is most likely more of sentimental value than anything else. Shouldn't knock it. It's actually NICE to see someone requesting this, especially in this day and age where people, despite all the talk of Climate Changes, buy more and more stuff than ever before! You're an absolutely STAR for doing this! And watching you work is a joy!
Absolutely STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!!! I have a wallet I got when I was in London back in 1998. It’s my favorite wallet and it is worn completely out. I have tried to find another one like it and have been unsuccessful… so guess what? Yep… I made one exactly like it with a little tweak of my own … I’m completely new at leatherwork but I’m so OCD about perfection that I will do something over and over again until I get it right.,. Several practice wallets on trash leather scraps and pieces of fake leather and I think I have finally figured it out and can proceed to make the real one with nice leather! Wish me luck!
best of luck to you 😊
Any luck?
@@barklet6110 yep… it turned out really well once I figured out how to skive my edges properly and used the right weight of leather… :) I didn’t want it to be so thick when folded… my hubby liked it so much he asked me if I would make one for him to replace his old one that he had carried for over 30 years… it was a graduation present from his Grandparents…
It was created with love. I can imagine how pleased the owner was to see this video. The value of craftsmanship is immeasurable! 🥰❤
This was both inspiring and amazing to watch. The ability to recreate the old wallet design and do so with such high quality materials and skills was wonderful. I never would have guessed how complicated some of those old wallets were to make, it was a treat to watch and I am sure the client is as amazed as we are. Thanks for doing this and thanks for sharing!!
Tradition skills are amazing. I admire it!
I really loved the whole process. The wallet looks great, the history behind it makes it a cherished posession. I have a similar problem with the wallet my grandpa gifted me 25 years ago. It's kept in a way better condition and it serves it's purpose. Unluckily, as for Huynh, the brand of the wallet is no more and I can't find anything similar in this minimalist era.
Exquisite workmanship. I love these types of wallets, simple yet they hold up over the years.
The amount of work that went into that wallet is astounding.
Watching videos like this make me wish I could get into leather working.
I never thought videos like this can be so relaxing and amazing at the same time, I'm subscribing. Keep up the amazing work
Awesome, thank you!
sometimes we forgot that leather craft is as fascinating as tailoring. but fast fashion really ruin the experience. now i understand and more appreciate the journey. the price we pay for these skills are insane to acquire such beautiful items. we should appreciate more...
I am not one to watch something like this but the title intrigued me. Wallets have been an issue for me for years. You would think with so many companies and options available it would be easy. It’s not. Finding something that is designed the way I like is just impossible. There is always compromise involved no matter what. The shape, color, layout as far as compartments go. I have to give up one thing for the other.
Then finding out that this was for someone that had a sentimental reason for your project I sat down and watched. I instantly fell in love with your skill, care and meticulous work. Stamping the name on it was the final touch. The wallet was beautiful and a piece of art as far as the craftsmanship goes. I watched the video 2 times because I was just amazed of how much work it required to make a high quality wallet. The music selection was spot on matching the video perfectly.
While random as it was to pop up on my You Tube I am thankful for having the opportunity to see your work.
I don’t normally comment but these videos are amazing. I love seeing a master of their craft
This wallet is gorgeous! All my wallets have had exactly that same shape, how could they not find a similar one in 30 years lol
The thing I LOVE with handicraft is that when you have the knowledge, you can almost take thin air and make the most fantastic thing with the knowledge. Eg: a piece of material, a string of yarn or, like here, leather. I love the feeling for beautiful details and the meticulous way to work; it shows so well in the end result: silent beauty that speaks volumes.
As a person who likes crafts, I deeply appreciate your words. Thanks!
@@HahnsAtelier You are welcome. I do the textile-crafts and have just finished a "coffee -bag": a grocery-bag sewn with 16 coffee -wrappers; such a sturdy, light weight bag which held 8 kg of groceries today :). Idea + knowledge + some material = beautiful things. It is BIG to beautify everyday-items. Less is more :)
15 years ago i got a wallet just like that, still using it till today!
altough its time to get some little fixes on the sewing when i see this i feel i need to love my wallet a bit more and give it some TLC! awesome job and keep the skill alive its very relaxing to see
Восхищен!!! Прекрасная работа , достойная мастера!!!
It’s a very impressive project! You’re great as always
Thank you so much 😀
My heart melted as I learn the story behind this re-created wallet. You are awesome!
I love watching artisan work like this, blacksmithing and fine woodworking. But this is the first time I've watched something like this and seriously considered about trying it as a hobby. Well done, that's a beautiful wallet!
Thank you Mitch, I am so glad that I can share the joy of this job!
Какая добрая история и замечательный фильм! Я получила большую дозу приятных эмоций и огромное воодушевление! Конечно, такой сложный кошелёк я смогу сшить не скоро, но сохраню себе это видео, чтобы знать, к чему стремиться. Спасибо, что поделились с нами своим опытом. Верю, что никто не остался равнодушным, посмотрев это видео. P.S. За русские субтитры отдельное спасибо, они спасли восприятие видео.
Спасибо за ваше слово, и я так рад, что вы поняли мою точку зрения об этом проекте. Плюс я люблю Россию.
I’ve bought mine back in 2015. It’s a black color lather wallet with the perfect size and everything like i have seen many on some of the well known brands shops here in Pakistan but never able to find anything near this one. So I really can feel the person who manages to keep his wallet for 30 years 😄👍
(P.S) the crafting is of next level.. out of the world ✨🔥
Thank you for your kind words!
I've always wondered how leather wallets could be stitched so perfectly. I was in awe watching the making of this gorgeous wallet. Thank you for sharing this with us. You are truly gifted.
i don't know how many times did i watched this vids really.maybe 4 or 5 times now, some how its feels so heartwarming thx for the content
Turned edge in Spanish is often “ruedo”. Regional variations do exist, though.
Muchas gracias!
wow you are one of the best craftsmen in world . thank you for this inspire story
Love this story. Thank you a mil!
The craftsmanship in this wallet is so much better than those luxury ones. Amazing. Thank you for sharing
Meticulously handcrafted. Excellent job you got there! Bravo!!
I wonder if there is a reaction video for the dad opening the gift. well done. great work
님의 손끝에서 깊은 감동 받고갑니다. 멋져요!
Its amazing how he valued his cleints and applied his masterpiece!!! 👏👏👏
I felt the love you put into this project. Every move was mesmerizing.
I'm so confused at the text "Dan4 …" and you writing "Four Dan" - beautiful vid nicely done👏
There were probably some clarifying texts after but they wouldn’t make sense out of context
I wrote it in the subtitles, but a lot of people keep asking. Stamping is correct. Celine has four children have Dan in their name. So It's a kind of family joke. "Four Dan Love Dad" is her final decision.
I was looking for that comment before I write mine :), and it is answered
HAHNS ATELIER It makes so much more sense now.
You don’t know how much the stamp has been bothering me throughout the video.
@@HahnsAtelier oh so basically saying the four dans love their dad.
Love it Hahns, I'm so glad you decided to take this project on. You made a beautiful recreation of the wallet and will hopefully bring another 30 yrs of use for the new owner.
Always love your craftsmanship and you have never ceased to amaze with every video. Keep up the wonderful work my friend!!!👍👍❤❤❤
Thanks so much my friend!
What a kind, skilled and generous man you are! I throughly enjoyed watching this, thanks for the upload.
Video like this deserves alot of like and views, I love handwork. They juat amazing.
Очень трогательная история и прекрасно выполненная работа.
Восхитительно! Каждый кадр это будто возрождение легенды! Эмоции переполняют! Спасибо!!!
I just discovered this channel yesterday. I enjoy the filming aesthetics, perspectives, close-ups, lightning, material of the surroundings/ stages, hands as conscious part of the dance, the timing how materials are put in front of the camera lens in space, how the cutting and working out of handcraft-material is dynamic and balanced but also sensual and calm, the same for the cutting-decisions of the film-material, the high-quality-sounds in it sometimes with ASMR-Useability, the clean/ dry- to- dramatic-story-telling, some humor, presenting some pieces like superstars at the end; independent from being used or being build, all the effort which is brought to the whole production and storytelling, the kindness in words, the fact of giving used things new life and taking it serious- to make them shine and also seeing humans and their emotions and needs behind it. For me this is enjoyable and, yes, healing-and its catching up with a wholesome(!!)-high-end-attitude to a lot of aspects of life.Thats beautiful inside and outside! So, thank you ( and team?) for all of that!!!!
I remember Rolf and had at least one myself. This style is exactly my Dad's favorite. Got lucky about 12 years ago and found a different brand (also now defunct) new at an outlet store. Doubt he'll need another.
왜 감동일까요? 고맙습니다 ^^
I'm glad you have mentioned the fun fact. I've been made fun by family for caring for and balming my leather craft but never my own skin :)
Wonderful work, wonderful heart ❤.
Sorry that he lost his soul mate!
I have been married for 35 years we dated for 3 years. My husband is American/Panamenian and I am Mexican/Speniar we live in USA. For us respect and communication are the best tools.
I am very happy to find your channel.
A big hug from California ❤
Respect and communication are the best tools. That's so right. Thank you for your comment. Big hug!
What an excellent job, an incredible craftsman, who would not give me to treasure such a piece of art. Congratulations !!!!
와 예술이네요 풀 바르는게 진짜 중독성 있어요 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
진짜 좋은 추억을 선물해드린것같아요 각인도 예쁘고
This was an incredible show of craftsmanship and a beautiful finished product. That being said the design is perfectly standard and is by no means one-of-a-kind so it seems a little silly for him to keep the same wallet all this time because he couldn't find another like it
A good master is also a good person. The video I watched today is a proof of that. You look at the lady as a human, not a customer. This way of thinking is only the point of view of a true master. It was a beautiful video and it got me emotional. Health to your hands and heart.
This was so sweet. Celine reminds me of... myself 3 years ago on the hunt to replace my boyfriend's dream wallet that was also super beat up. The company also ran out of business. He really liked the sideways pockets like the left side of your custom wallet. Why is it so hard to find a wallet like that omg. I ended up buying his new wallet from Mr.Lentz and the craftsmanship of it really made me appreciate leatherworkers and leather goods!
이게 진짜 크리에이터지! 정성을 담아 만드신 만큼 받으시는 분도 분명 기뻐하실겁니다.
그리고 오지랖 넓은 소리 하자면... 로션은 조금이라도 바르시는게 피부 건강에 좋습니다; 😢
아내가 이 댓글보더니 이젠 좀 바르라고 난리에요!! ㅎㅎ
Крутой кошелек, прекрасное исполнение, спасибо за видео. Для меня пока сложно.
Зато, есть к чему стремиться)))
I am loving the videos from this channel. It’s so relaxing to watch. The background music is also relaxing. What an amazing talent and craftsmanship!
Thanks for showing you making this. You do beautiful work and it was heart warming to see you make this for them. Keep up 5ge great videos!
Какие золотые руки!То ,что они делают-уникально.
Eu amei! Realmente tem coisas que gostaríamos de replicar para termos para o resto da vida. Seu trabalho é magnífico.
It's amazing seeing any master craftsman at work
Absolutely astonishing.
Watching this made me take a closer look at my own wallet. I had never noticed the fact that the back part folds over the front, or the crease marks in the pockets but God Damn if those little touches dont make it look better.
Thanks
This is the kind of wife all men should strive for.
A woman that knows a true man enjoys his familiarity & tradition.
If i would lose that wallet somewhere, i would be okay to get it back empty, well done 👍
Excellent work.
I know how it feels to have a wallet you treasure but cannot replace.
My dad made my wallet as a kid in the boy scouts about 50 years ago, I don't care one bit about the contents of my wallet but the wallet itself is irreplaceable.
What a Heart-Warming Special Gift to somebody you never met !
I miss the days it wasn’t difficult to find high quality goods made by craftsmen… instead of designer goods mass produced by robots.
Thanks!
The question everyone is scared to ask:
*How can I buy this, Hahns?*
I learn every time I watch a video. Makes my products better.
I know to some it may seem like a simple wallet. But as a guy that depends greatly on mine. I can appreciate its importance. Thank you for sharing this video. To me this is a work of art.
Love it!!! Just a question, where can I get the lining and how is it called?
It's called jacquard here. Polyester
I’d pay $300 usd for a wallet like that. Beautiful!
i wonder how much it was.

True Craftsmanship. So nice to see in this market produced world.🙏
