UPDATE ON TOP BRASS PROJECT . . .

Well, for those of you who have been diligently following Mr. Legendary Leather and have been wondering what ever happened to the secret project for Mr. Top Brass in Arizona . . . here's the latest update. Following many "bumps in the old dusty trail", Mr. Legendary Leather has almost completed the project. Here's a few sneak peaks . . .

Some of you may have already guessed what the project is. Shhhh. For those of you who are still hazarding a guess, you will have to wait a little longer for the final pictures.

Final fittings are scheduled for Wednesday, June 22nd and pictures of the completed project will follow within a few days after.

Meanwhile, Mr. Legendary Leather has been working on a special project for "Mr. Wild Game Hunter" located in Wisconsin. This project is back in the "comfort zone" of Mr. Legendary Leather and promises to be one of his spectacular eye-poppers! Stay tuned . . .

PROFILE

A Graphic Designer by trade . . . a cowboy artisan at heart, Mr. Legenday Leather developed an interest in leather-crafting back in his Boy Scout days. Around the same time, he also acquired what would eventually develop into an overwhelming interest in knives. As he grew older, he unknowingly "married" his two interests together and would occassionally craft a knife sheath to satisfy the "leather craving" within, sometimes with years in between crafted projects.

In his 40's, Mr. Legendary Leather added rifle and pistol shooting to his hobbies, while his curiosities about the old west developed into a passion for more knowledge about the "cowboy". Once again, "marrying" his interests, he discovered the "Single Action Shooting Society" (SASS) which is an international organization that was created to preserve and promote the sport of cowboy action shooting. SASS members share a common interest in preserving the history of the Old West and competitive shooting; "Each participant is required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, a Hollywood western star, or an appropriate character from fiction. Their costume is then developed accordingly. Many event participants gain more enjoyment from the costuming aspect of the sport than from the shooting competition, itself." . . . the key word in this quote being "costuming" . . .

In his enthusiasm to develop the ultimate cowboy costume, Mr. Legendary Leather called upon all of his resources and interests, which encompassed everything that would be needed to satisfy yet another "calling". The variety in his leather-crafted projects is a testament to his growth in crafting the bovine hide. With each new creation, he carefully refines and hones his skills.

The imagination holds endless possibilities . . . and Mr. Legendary Leather eagerly seeks the "dusty old trail" he will travel to create every one of them!
