NTWA Jacobite sporran photo

My mate here in Japan that does a bit of leather work from home has just finished a Jacobite style sporran from the NTWA pattern that is on the web . Here is the link below that my sporran was made from

The sporran was made out of soft leather and under the white horn fitting on the front flap is a magnetic catch that holds it closed. It turned out very well and holds everything that I need and it's 100% better than the fake black leather sporran which I bought . He also made the kilt belt as well.

How did I miss this thread. Thats one nice looking sporran. I'd be proud of that. The belt looks good too

Just be sure to keep that magnetic closure away from credit cards or anything else with a magnetic stripe.

I've erased hotel keys by being careless with the magnet on the back of a name badge.

Very sharp. I have seen the pattern for the sprran. It makes up very well.

Nice looking sporran. Your friend have any plans to make any more?

Sporrans are a great deal of fun to make. Congratulations on that one.

I just spoke to my mate Kenta and he said he would be keen to make some more Jacobite sporrans for US $ 130.00 . The sporran is made from soft leather & stained dark brown or black etc, The sporran strap is made from higher grade leather with an antique brass buckle . He does not own a sewing machine so it is all hand stiched. I think it's very good value for a sporran of this style. Postage to the U.S for example would be less than $15 I guess. If anyone is interested please let me know and then he could start making you one the same
