What impresses me most about all your sporrans is the huge variety of styles you make, yet each one is so perfectly finished that it would seem that particular style of sporran is your specialty.

The skunk sporran you crafted for my son gets nothing but "OOH...AHHH" s and I am positively tingling at the thought of my sporran being on your queue*.

Keep up the magnificent work!

Cheers

Jamie

* after all who doesn't want a quality sporran from a Cthulhu worshiping steampunk mad scientist!

I finished another brass cantle sporran that went out last week at the same time as Panache's (whose review and pix can be found HERE):

It's the same three sided brass style as Jamie's, but with a pinked and brogued Victorian style bag.

Below is a nice detail shot of the knotwork, pinking, and the grain of the kidskin.

As always, constructive commentary or critique is welcome
