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.
A guide to the best items from the best makers and the stories behind them.
Joe Longaphie
For Leather Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book Cover With Serenity PrayerI couldn't be happier with the finished cover that I ordered. It's better than I imagined . Pictures online don't do it justice. It was a quick process Allan was awesome to deal with. Likes to share his ideas and hear yours . It was fast and worth every cent, if not quite a bit more .

For Leather carved book cover ProjectMy 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!

For Jerome's Looking for something that will fit into a womaI was very pleased with how professional Allen was in working with me. He went beyond what I expected. He delivered the work fast to me so to get it in time for Christmas. I will suggest him to everyone I know and look forward to having future gifts created by him.
Kesha Riley
For Kesha's Leather journal coverI am glad Allan was the first to respond to this project. He not only made great suggestions for the design, he showed me the progress on the journal almost each day. The finished project was perfect and so awesome, I've already started planning my next project. The journal was delivered earlier than expected and the cost was well worth it!
Valorie Cummings
For Valorie's custom leather quad coverVery pleased with the results of my project. Allan did a fantastic job!
Julia Bleser
For Katie's ring dish/holder ProjectI couldn't have asked for a better experience with Allan! He was willing to take on a project outside his usual offerings, and had the best communication with me about what I wanted and even mocked up designs for me so that we could make it everything I imagined and more. I will definitely be ordering more ring dishes from Allan in the future for all my friends as well as recommend him to others looking for a unique handcrafted present. 5 stars is not enough to tell Allan thank you!
