Hand Tooled Leather Camel Club Big Book Cover
This cover was custom made for the "chairman's book" for a recovery clubhouse. All my covers are co-designed with the customer and hand carved and tooled by me from the highest quality tooling leather. The interior is of finished calf-skin, or alternatively of designer leather of choice or even light weight tooling leather with further customization. If you are a member of an AA clubhouse or group, how about donating a customized book or notebook cover customized with your group's name, theme, or image? I would be interested in working with you on a cost effective, simple yet special design and group discount to cover the community books for your Big Book study or step study meeting. I know our groups meeting books really get put to some abuse, and a leather cover would help protect your group's texts. All pricing is based on the size of cover and complexity of both exterior hand tooled design and interior construction. I will work with you to select a design that works with your budget.

Welcome to RAllanK Leather!
My name is Allan and I have been hand carving and tooling leather since around the age of 12. Nevermind how long ago that was!
My initial work was in wallets, belts, and purses. But my love is in tooling larger items with more room for design and expression. I currently specialize in book covers and covers for consumer electronic devices.
Have a family bible that you would like to protect and decorate with a carved leather cover with your favorite passage inscribed? How about a personalized cover for your favorite novel or photo album. Are you in recovery or know someone who is? I have many ready-made designs for covers for the literature from Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12 step programs for that special sponsor or loved one in recovery.
I also tool portraits of pets. Have a furry friend that you would like remembered in leather? How about a leather clock or wall hanging with your favorite picture of your pet?
Though my love and specialty is in the carving, tooling and dying of leather, I do welcome all inquiries for your leather project. I do all my own work including tooling and dying of the leather and the stitching, lacing and any other assembly required to complete the final product.
I look forward to hearing your ideas for that carved leather project you have in mind.

Jan 5, 2015My experience working with RAllan Leathercraft was amazing! Allen was very professional! Through out the project, we communicated back and forth, I really appreciated his suggestions, honesty and expertise. Allan was very good to work with and responded quickly to my daily emails and questions regarding the project. It was a pleasure working with Allen, I would have to say that I give him 5 stars in timeliness, communication, professionalism, expertise, shipping and delivery and value. Should I ever have a reason to do a leather project again, I will definitely use RAllen K, and would highly recommend his work to anyone looking someone honest, talented and professional with leather craft. I was very pleased with work!
