I'm an artisan who loves leather. Most of the work I do is on a custom basis. Typical work includes belts, billfolds, clutches, purses, guitar straps, rifle slings, holsters, artwork (pictures), dream catchers, leather certificates, knife sheathes, etc. If it isn't listed, don't assume I don't do it! ASK!!

    Ric sent photographs of the completed Market Tote and it was stunning and I looked forward to having it shipped to the UK as a surprise present for my wife. When she opened it - could hardly believe how beautiful the finish bag was and was overwhelmed at the craftmanship and attention to detail. Also knowing that it was Custom Made and therefore a one-off created for her was a bonus. Thank you Ric.

    Well communicated. Set delivery expectation at up to a month but delivered in ~2 weeks. Provided progress updates in a timely manner. Master artisan. This is guaranteed to generate "Wow that's incredible - where did you get that" and will definitely recommend to others for similar requests/projects.

    Product is perfect and exactly as advertised. The workmanship is impeccable and sized just as I requested. Shipping was fast, and I received my straps nearly an entire week ahead of the estimated delivery date. I would absolutely work with Ric again, and highly recommend his skill and expertise to others.

    Working with Ric through this process was an excellent experience. The communication back and forth was flawless and Ric honored all my requests and provided expert opinons where he thought necessary. The project I tasked him with was to create my United States Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Charge Book. This is a time honored tradition among Chief's that has deep roots within the seagoing services with strong historical meaning. I am extremely proud to carry a charge book that projects how honored I am to be a "Chief!" The quality is second-to-none, and I will be coming back to Ric for future projects!
