Used by professional chefs around the world, Linny Kenney Leather chef knife rolls are the industry standard for secure and stylish kitchen tool transportation. These chef knife rolls have also recently become a favorite among adventurous home cooks, allowing anyone to carry their personal knives and kitchen essentials to a barbecue, on vacation, to the family holidays, into the wilderness, or anywhere else inspiration takes you. This compact chef knife roll features five interior storage pockets and weighs under a pound and a half, making it the perfect lightweight companion for most occasions. The materials used can only be described as uncompromising. We literally traveled the world to source the finest possible materials with the lowest environmental footprint and highest ethical standards available. The velvety bio-suede leather interior is imported from an incredibly responsible tannery in Portugal where consideration for the environment is their number one priority. Waste from the tanning process is turned into fertilizer. The exterior Vachetta leather is a natural luxury leather imported from Tuscany, Italy. Tuscany is famous for producing the finest leather in the world due to their coveted, centuries-old process of naturally tanning hides. This leather was tanned using chestnuts and is free of harmful chemicals. The hides are a byproduct from French beef cattle raised humanely on open fields. (This listing is for one knife roll.

Before starting LK Leather, Linny had earned her B.A. in Music, studied Opera singing in NYC and Germany, worked as a horse Wrangler in Mendocino, CA and successfully rode her horse, Sojourner, 3,700 miles across the country from Los Angeles, California to New Hampshire. It was an 8.5 month ride.
Linny designs and creates art that is highly personal and unique, so that her pieces feel like another form of expression for the chefs and musicians she works with.
She began her business in preparation for her own cross country trek on horseback, and on her journey realized the desire amongst artists and adventurers alike for products that are as expressive as they are functional, and as easy on the eye as they are on the conscience.
LK Leather uses clean, full grain Italian vachetta leather and hand dyes each piece with non-toxic dye to create functional art that is both ethical and beautiful. Every piece is carefully made by hand from start to finish in the New Hampshire White Mountains.

For Leather Bifold WalletI had the pleasure of working with Linny to make a custom bifold leather wallet. From the beginning there was clear communication between her and I. She kept me posted along her journey of making the wallet, which to me, was key in making what I envisioned for the wallet. She sent me not only posts but picture updates as well. She also heeded any suggestion and or concern I had and addressed them accordingly. The end product was more that I could have expected. The careful design and coloration of the wallet is amazing. I would recommend this maker to anyone out there.

For Skinny Leather BeltLinny was great and she made me a fabulous belt too! After having the worst time trying to find a skinny belt to wear with high waisted dresses, I decided to have one custom made and it's now one of my favorite pieces. Linny was great with communication, she let me pick every aspect of the belt so that it was perfect just for me and delivered a high quality piece.
