Received some tanned ele hide from Zim. Any good suggestions for companies or small shops for boots, belts. wallets etc. for reasonable prices?

I guess it depends upon your definition of reasonable. Custom leather work, when done by a craftsman, isn't inexpensive. I recommend Henry Flores of Falcons Forge. You can reach him at 408-930-8682. Many of us on AR have had him do everything from watchbands to culling belts with our Ele and Buff hides. His work is exceptional and he now does all of Michael458's work as well. Henry has done work for AR members across the U.S. If you do a search in the FIND box for Henry Flores or Falcons Forge you will get a number of posts with some good pics of Henry's work. For boots, I go with Loveless Boots in Oklahoma. Mike ______________ DSC DRSS (again) SCI Life NRA Life Sables Life Mzuri IPHA "To be a Marine is enough." | |||

Lionhunter is right.... Henry does the best custom work I have ever seen done anywhere. I would not even consider another option... Here is rig I had Henry do for my Kimber Ultras from Elephant, the lace is cape buffalo.....   These are some of the rifle slings and cartridge slides we had Henry do....    Canteen cover...     If you can think it in leather... Henry can do it in Leather...........

I've had custom game leatherwork, purses, wallets and the like done by Walden & Bork (www.waldenbork.com) and found it well done. Regards, Tim | |||

Thank you gentlemen. Appreciate all the info. LionHunter, reasonable I meant reasonable. I know there is guys out there that I couldn't afford to call so to speak. No offence to guys that are pricier then others. Just looking for guys that can make things for simply reasonable price as I'm doing in my business. That's all. That's why I love AR. Lots of good info from all side of the spectrum. " Until the day breaks and the nights shadows flee away " Big ivory for my pillow and 2.5% of Neanderthal DNA flowing thru my veins.
