I don’t plan to make leather handles. I’m using fabric, or vinyl but this is hands down the easiest way i have seen to do this! AND…with a pattern! This is awesome! A tip for tapering rope. Wrap tape on the end and the cut it at an angle. I would use a rotary cutter to avoid fraying, then use some fray check. (I just use stick glue).
Excellent job on you video. I was able to follow very easily. Your instructions was right to the point!, No dancing, nor loud, obnoxious arse music. Thank you!
this is beautiful and you make it look so simple. just a question, but how long is your handle? and could you make the handle longer? i want to add rolled handles to a tote i am making for my wife, so this will be perfect. thank you for sharing
6:25 If you go with the first method - burnishing will be an inferior edge finishing technique. Or, you should also glue pieces together during the stitching. Without glueing it will be hard to achieve a good finish with burnishing.
If you are using a firm veg tan leather that isn't overly thin you should still be able to get a nice burnished edge without applying glue. Gluing while stitching would be quite difficult and messy.
This is a great video. It seems to be a great easy way to create these handles which happen to be my favorite. I love the look hand sewn handles. Can this method be use with vinyl also? I'm trying to learn leather crafting but it is taking me some time. Thank you for this video.🥰
Thanks! 8mm is one of the thicker types of leather cord so its a bit more difficult to find. I got mine on AliExpress, there are a few sellers there that have that size.
This short Topic is effiecent delivering the simple tricks and techniques to make. Imagine I am making One leather bag and thinking of an idea making handles like this I just refer to your video. It is really helpful I love it!!
The video does skip a bit where I pass the needles in around the center hole, but when you see when the threads being pulled the way the threads are stitched. The threads are stitched in a way that the material around the center hole is pulled into the corner.
When you bent the handle will some creases form on the inner side of the handle? Is this normal? But they don't always exist. I see some bags with creeses on inner side of the handles and some without. What it depends on leather or something else?
Yes it depends on a few factors such as type of leather, leather thickness, handle thickness and bending radius. You can try to remove the creases by stretching and molding the handle by hand and smoothing out the crease.
Thank you for that great tutorial. Is it also advisable to craft such a handle from full quill ostrich leather (maybe with veg tan liner?) for a duffle bag, for example?
@@TeranAtelier Thanks. I will try the liner for the handle and for the rest of the bag, I think that 2mm of ostrich leather may be enough. Would you agree as I do not have very much experience with ostrich leather?
@@TheGizmoGremlin I have not worked with ostrich body yet but as long as you are lining the bag it should be fine. You can add interlining reinforcement tape to areas that will have a lot of tension such as the tabs that wrap around D-rings etc which will prevent stretching over time.
@@TheGizmoGremlin You should be able to see if you watch the video slowly. The right needle comes out through the corner hole and the left needle goes into the corner hole and out of the hole on the outside of the opposite side.
The core material of the handles should be substantial enough that it prevents the leather of the handle from stretching. If you do not plan to use a core then the leather towards the the center of the hide running parallel to the direction of the spine has the least amount of stretch and it is normally used for belts.
This one of the outstanding video for making handles in organizing way and professionality . Thank you for the free pattern too.
Thank you! You're very welcome!
I love this video. wonderful. making handle is my biggest weakpoint. it was very handy for me. thanks so much.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the tip. I have used rope previously until I started with leather cord which I find a lot easier to work with.
Thank you! It took me a while to understand how the thread goes when you switch sides at 5:32 but I finally got it. Thank you.
Fantastic insightful tips for handles. Thanks so much!
Fantastic video. Clear and precise instructions and even comes with free pattern. This is the best of TH-cam!
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!
@@TeranAtelier What is the diameter of the leather cord?
@@mortenmidtgaard4801 It is 8mm leather cord.
Excellent job on you video.

Your instructions was right to the point!, No dancing, nor loud, obnoxious arse music.

Thanks so much!

Great video, where did you find the 8mm round leather cord?
Thanks! 8mm is one of the thicker types of leather cord so its a bit more difficult to find. I got mine on AliExpress, there are a few sellers there that have that size.

How did you stitch the center hole at the tip of the handle? the video skips in between stitches.
The video does skip a bit where I pass the needles in around the center hole, but when you see when the threads being pulled the way the threads are stitched. The threads are stitched in a way that the material around the center hole is pulled into the corner.
@@TeranAtelier could you please explain this more? I came to ask this same question and i don't understand your reply.
Thankyou your pdf👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You are welcome 😀

Yes it depends on a few factors such as type of leather, leather thickness, handle thickness and bending radius. You can try to remove the creases by stretching and molding the handle by hand and smoothing out the crease.
@@TeranAtelier But if some creases remain will this affects quality of the handle, i.e will those creases will wear out quickly or crack?
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you for that great tutorial. Is it also advisable to craft such a handle from full quill ostrich leather (maybe with veg tan liner?) for a duffle bag, for example?
Sounds like a great project. You may want to add some reinforcement tape to the inside of the ostrich handle if you are worried about stretching.
@@TeranAtelier Thanks. I will try the liner for the handle and for the rest of the bag, I think that 2mm of ostrich leather may be enough. Would you agree as I do not have very much experience with ostrich leather?
@@TheGizmoGremlin I have not worked with ostrich body yet but as long as you are lining the bag it should be fine. You can add interlining reinforcement tape to areas that will have a lot of tension such as the tabs that wrap around D-rings etc which will prevent stretching over time.
@@TeranAtelier great, thank you once more. And how do you stitch the one corner stich in the d ring area?
@@TheGizmoGremlin You should be able to see if you watch the video slowly. The right needle comes out through the corner hole and the left needle goes into the corner hole and out of the hole on the outside of the opposite side.
Hello. Does it matter in which direction to cut the handles on the skin? I mean how to position the template
The core material of the handles should be substantial enough that it prevents the leather of the handle from stretching. If you do not plan to use a core then the leather towards the the center of the hide running parallel to the direction of the spine has the least amount of stretch and it is normally used for belts.
