WORD OF MOUTH . . .

There's no better compliment than 'word of mouth'.
Mr. Legendary Leather is much blessed to receive
special requests for custom work due to 'word of mouth'.

Mr. Hit Factor from Michigan has kindly requested a few
creations from Mr. Legendary Leather in the past and has
now been a might kinder by referrin' another kindly soul
who has a special request for Mr. Legendary Leather's talents.


The Michigan Kid (friend to Mr. Hit Factor) treasures a
family heirloom and wanted a left-handed replica holster to
match the heirloom holster, which currently holds a high
standard H-D military .22 pistol. Based purely on the kind
words of Mr. Hit Factor, The Michigan Kid put his trust and
faith in the abilities of Mr. Legendary Leather and mailed
the original holster for Mr. Legendary Leather to study.



As you've heard the Missus mention prior, it's always
hard to match the color of an existing piece, exactly.
Time and wear on the leather affects the coloring.


However, Mr. Legendary Leather did his best to match
the color as well as the design and style of the original
holster. Rumor has it that The Michigan Kid is mighty
pleased with his replica holster.

Many gratitudes go out to The Michigan Kid for his
blind faith in Mr. Legendary Leather's talents.

ANOTHER CHALLENGE . . .

Mr. Legendary Leather recently had another opportunity to
stretch his talents and add to the diversity of his work.



'Mr. Recruiter' approached Mr. Legendary Leather at
SASS's Ambush back in May with a special request for a simple
 sheath to accomodate his large scimitar-shaped carving knife.
For those of you who are familiar with the scimitar shape,
you know that the curved shape and width of the tip of the
blade might prove difficult to fashion a sheath for a blade
that retreats from the sheath at an angle due to the curved
tip. However, after trial and error, Mr. Legendary Leather
was able to adjust his calculations and create the
sheath that 'Mr. Recruiter' had requested.


Many gratitudes to 'Mr. Recruiter' for puttin' his trust in
Mr. Legendary Leather's many talents. He's always up for the challenge!
