Fountain Pen Case
Fountain Pen Case, hard shell and custom made. It does not get any better than this for the discerning fountain pen collector. I was contacted by a client in Toronto looking for something just a little bit different. He forwarded me a few photos of cases he likes along with this comment, " I can't find anything outside of Japan that isn't junk (sort of cheap leather and all floppy). Your stuff looks fantastic and high quality". Well, I am always up for a challenge and thought to myself, "self, let's ramp this way up!" The ramp-up? A layered piece of custom molded kydex giving this Dragon Leatherworks pen case practical indestructibility! This whole project was a challenge I must say. It's one thing to create this out of leather, it's another to develop and build a custom kydex vacuum press to perfectly mold the kydex inner shell to the specifications required. This entailed not only the research for vacuum molding but as well the creation of a hardwood mold to form the kydex around. One day when I have the time I'll try and get an article up as to just how this whole thing was constructed. For now I'd like to keep the competitive advantage in house.
This piece is created out of .75oz kip calfskin with a .028" piece of kydex sandwiched between the calfskin on the upper body. This particular piece is designed to nestle a high end fountain pen .6" in diameter and 6" long. The finish is two applications of professional neatsfoot oil with hand rubbed atom wax edges. It can be modified to hold any size pen required and could be made to hold multiple pens. The price? Starts at $200.00 for this baby.

Dragonthorn Leatherworks manufactures custom/bespoke leatherwork, one piece at a time, one stitch at a time. Our pieces are unique and attention to detail is paramount. I specialize in smaller leather items but build just about anything as long as it is important to you. Bags, briefs, cellphone cases, tablet cases, guitar straps, holsters, knife sheaths and such… You may order any of the pieces shown on Maker-Marketplace.com as well as any item shown on my website at https://dragonleather.net. I can make any item as you see it, customize it to your wishes or we can create something completely unique. Take a look at our work, give your ultimate leather dream some thought, then let me know, we'll build something special together.
Dragonthorn Leatherworks has been and remains as one of the premier global custom leather smiths since 1999. We have accomplished this through extreme attention to detail, world class customer service and, obviously, strong knowledge and skill. We are not inexpensive, nor do we rush through a project simply to get one off the bench in order to start another. True custom leatherwork is very unique and more of an art than a craft although both elements are combined in our work. Our communication levels during the construction of a project remain a strong suit of ours and may border on “way too much information”. However, in order to ensure that a customer receives precisely what they wish for it is necessary to communicate on a consistent basis and make you feel part of the team. I invite you to read the column "What is Custom Leatherwork” to better understand what custom leatherwork truly is. The brief article can be found on my website at this web address: https://dragonleather.net/custom-leatherwork/ Additional reviews may be read at https://dragonleather.net/testimonials/
Please feel free to look around the website and enjoy the many items we have developed for clients around the world. Take a read at the testimonials to see what these customers have to say about our work and working with us. Give us a shout if/when you have an idea you’d like to bounce off of us. You may be surprised at what we come up with. Thanks, Dave

For Leather Knife Sheath, Kydex And Sheepskin Lined5.0Dave was fantastic to work with and provided timely communication every step of the way until the sheath was completed. The sheath itself is truly a work of art...Unbelievable craftsmanship - you REALLY do get what you pay for here. A little pricey? yes, but WELL worth it. Liked it so much that I will be working with Dave again soon to make this sheath for another knife. I can only speak for his knife sheaths, but I am sure all his leather work is exceptional - truly a masterclass in design and execution. Thanks again Dave!!
