Anyone going to give this pouch a try? I should do a little contest maybe on who can do my favorite one.

[@timothycramer3515]

Dark Horse Workshop heck ya I’m in.

[@KatyaKnightwolf]

That might be fun

[@KatyaKnightwolf]

@Will Brenner not clumsy, just unrefined :) how all first time projects go

[@Falkopellegrino74]

where we can show the result of work?

[@haydnwhitewolf2197]

I'm a week late but I think I want to give this one a shot.

[@inerlogic]

"You could braid it, i did knot."

[@galli0]

Every time i see a video i wanna jump right into leather working, maybe at some point when there's money for it, but for now I'll just enjoy all your videos😍

[@ryanmcewen393]

Getting into leather work can be affordable. Take a look at the video Magnus did on what you need to get started. Leather is expensive. But Suede isn't. Also. You can often find remnant bags at your local Tandy or other leather supply store. Great for small projects.

[@deathknight02]

Did just this, though i went kinda crazy on starting tools and stuff

[@deathknight02]

Bought the pattern, and a bunch of tools, first leather thing i made. Happy how it came out

[@heidibekkevold6279]

This is so cool! Been looking for nice pouches to make, but never really found a good one. This is perfect!

[@Flashahol]

I was just about to make myself a fire kit pouch. This is definitely what I should (and will) make. Great find right here!

[@andrewsprung4518]

Definitely giving this one a shot!

[@ruex1234]

That turned out gorgeous.

[@lokimidknight7319]

Hey, love this video and concept. There is some real science here. Be proud of what you've made!

[@rainbowsNvampires]

Definitely going to try and make one of these! I love all of your carving patterns.

[@kristi8484]

Love this !! Thank you so much for sharing !!

[@juliashelton6699]

That pouch is the coolest! Can't wait to make one for myself!🤩

[@draven3838]

Nice looking pouch

[@davedreds5905]

Looks great. Thanks for the video

[@Robert-xp4ii]

Very nice! The dark tooling actually matches the outside material quite well. I like it a lot! 👍💯

[@jennaong1357]

Me, clicking on this video bc it was in my recommended and looked cool: This dude: *deep freaking voice out of nowhere* Me: HOLY BUHJEEZUS

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Not sure if that's good or bad. Enjoy! :)

[@hajnalkapukler8932]

I really like this medieval money owner. Congratulation!

this really helps learn'd the trade from a ww 2 vet and have ben trying to get tools 4 my self to get started making stuff from home gl every 1 in u work

[@blueharrington1893]

Thanks for sharing that was cool , have a good one ☮️

[@Ktulu4you]

Last pouch I made was a box pouch that straps to the stock of my rifle and holds extra rounds securely tip down for quick loading

[@ryanmcewen9364]

Great video! Sharing everywhere!

[@morganthomas1463]

Definitely making this

[@scottlawrence2015]

Great project

[@bryanswift]

Leather balm with atom wax is supposed to be buffed to a shine after it dries. The heat from the friction of buffing activates the beeswax and creates a water resistant seal. If you don't buff it, you just have a tacky waxy film on your project. Always buff the balm.

[@EphanyasisOwleyes]

Anything you make is cool.

[@chelsearobichaud3717]

Omg You do amazing work.

[@GSimon850]

It looks fine to me get the stuff back out the bin, thanks for sharing buddy. Cheers Simon

[@JunkMailBoxStuff]

2 coats of resist, allowing them to dry between coats, should work. I prefer Resolene (diluted 50% with water) for my resist uses.

[@mszoomy]

Beautiful work, you make it look easy. My younger sister bought a pouch like this for me many years ago when she visited Scotland. It's the same style and I've never used it because I just don't want to mess it up. I've often thought of trying my hand at making one, the actual construction is quite simple but I've never really done any work with leather. You give me enough confidence to perhaps give it a go. I believe Tandy had a shop in Tampa years ago which is only about an hour or 2 from me, I'll have to find out Thanks

[@georgemayhew8513]

Super cool to watch! Cant wait to try this out 👍

[@thisusedtobeme]

this is great, I am going to start on a pouch today. for my gold! lol

[@groseillegrowa3659]

Love it ...

[@GottliebGoltz]

Good idea.

[@David35445]

I bought the pattern on Saturday morning and was done by noon. Went together well, also ran into the hole count issue but was easily compensated for. What I did was to start my stitching on one end, went half way. Started a new stitch line on the other end and compensated for the hole issue along the bottom. Now I just need to watch all your carving videos because I really suck at it, lol.

[@robertocantu5931]

Thanks for the video

[@LiliyZem]

I love leather Pouch, I will definitely give a try. thank you for sharing👍

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Thanks for watching!

[@redpillproductionscanada5563]

Badass!

[@buffnatsuki7204]

I need to make a big one to hold all the things ill need for my larp. Wish me luck!

[@dp2370]

Wauw beautifal work!!!

[@doublenickle570]

I enjoyed the video. As a leather craft novice I am amazed at how easy you make it look to make a product like this. I can make the pouch but the carving is where I make the worst mistakes. Tooling I do a bit better with so there's that. Thanks for making these videos, I find them interesting, informative and very helpful.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Glad you enjoyed it. Practice practice on the carving part!

[@Bifocal_Burrito]

I love your videos, they have taught me a lot, especially about leather carving. I was wondering if you could do a "how to" on making/using Hardened/Boiled Leather (cuir bouilli) for projects like bracers. Thanks for the videos great stuff.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

It's on my list. Most of my hardening is was based but I'll do some water hardening as well.

[@thearcanegearsmith4885]

Love the videos! I just joined your Patreon, I like to support artists like yourself! Love the leather carving! Keep up the excellent work!

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Thanks for the support!

[@jayl111792]

I sell resin rupees and thought it would be cool to have a wallet to go in. This is gonna be a game changer and I cannot wait to try this. Thank you so much for the tutorial! That looks beautiful!

[@a1s1pinky]

Your voice is so calming in the voice over. And you’re genuinely funny! Hehe. Thanks for sharing. :)

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Glad you're enjoying the videos. :)

[@shaunhall6834]

Sweet!

[@MountainFisher]

I use Tandy Super Shene in two coats for a resist and it works really good for me and I paint some items with Fiebings pro dye, works well as long as I'm careful.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

[@Vividxful]

1337. good vids. thx for the tips. i plan on starting now for my larp group. feels good to just work with my hands though. keep things coming i appreciate the time and effort you put in.

[@The_Nailsmith]

I hope for a day I can learn to work with leather more efficiently, my attempts thus far aren’t very good but your videos are very helpful and informative

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Glad to have helped.

[@aryakatya27]

love your work =)

[@lucyleivabravo6717]

Me encanto la creatividad y el trabajo muy bien hecho gracias

[@eco.3977]

I'm feeling very sick right now and just watching this video with your deep voice talking over it is so soothing

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Awe that sucks. Glad I could help you relax! Maybe listen to my storytime videos and have a nap! :)

[@rachellearthur4444]

good luck dont die

[@achromium63]

Love all things viking

[@earlelzy7243]

New to the channel. Live Viking leather works. Trying to make a pouch and a sheath for my bearded hatchet.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Welcome! :)

[@thorntoncasey]

The Tandy antique gel always goes dark with resists. I prefer the fiebings antique paste. Much better results and easier to avoid splotchy marks on large pieces

[@trickbrain7536]

I purchased the pattern and changed it a little so i could make it out of fabric, its a slightly different process but it turned out great, so i made some for some friends.

[@klaasvaak4803]

Holy crap I thought it look shit the whole time until you pulled the laces together and it looked sick as hell. Nice one

[@DON-yq2op]

Real nice video

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Thank you very much.

[@Nilocjohn]

I've found this refillable brush pen that works well for doing the internal paintings.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I have the angelus ones I should have probably used them for this

[@josegracas7890]

Muito bom trabalho 👍

[@xFalkax]

Hey! Awesome video! Just wanted to throw out there, in case no one has said anything yet, that the Pro Resist actually works great but is only compatible with the antique finishes. It isn’t compatible with the gel antiques. Also the first batch of bottles they sent out to Tandy were recalled. I had this same issue and went through a few bottles thinking I kept getting defective product until I finally reached out to Fiebings directly and was told what I mentioned above. 🙂

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Good info, thanks!

[@TheLeathersmithShop]

I love using gel antique too, but I've noticed it does penetrate more than antique paste. It'll go through resists, gum trag, and just about anything but acrylic. The whole "wax on, wax off," thing doesn't work quite the same with gel as with the paste.

[@donnabeem3036]

That stuff you threw in the trash I tried that too and it really made my piece look like well crap and so I didn't throw it away I've been using it to stain furniture and it seems to do a great job I just put some on and rub it in and kind of buff it off and it makes it dark but then I sanded a little bit and I get the color I'm looking for so yeah waste not wanting there's always a purpose for stuff that goes in the trash sometimes

[@StuffUCanMake]

Just discovered your channel. You really have awesome videos. I am going to be a regular here!

[@user-ew8rp2xx1d]

Божественно❤❤❤

[@lesharp5748]

If you use pro resist you need to put 2 to 3 coats to get it liter color but it is leather and it takes it the way it wants

[@SuperFluidFerroFluid]

I needed to comment so it was 200 bc I have OCD - nice video!

[@fhuber7507]

Make a couple from scrap cloth as practice

[@RichGwilliam]

"I didn't count the stitch holes, I fudged it, it's fine." - we need more leatherworking guides admitting missteps and being realistic about them. Leatherwork's a great hobby where some of the coolest and most creative stuff comes from happy little accidents along the way.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I try and include my stumbles along the way so people know it's ok for that to happen and also learn from my mistakes. 😀

[@DanteCorwyn]

Quick question, when you're using the 4-in-1 punch, could you punch both pieces at the same time to get the holes to match?

[@fludrbywest3886]

Very Kewl❣️❣️✨ what kind of critter is this on your leather work? When I was a little girl about 3 or 4 my daddy gave me a pull sting pouch because I like to save coins and carry the pouch around and hear the sound it made. 😁 now I just love pouches , I hAve some leather and I wanted to make my own. Anyway I like your little pouch and will purchase your instructions. I do like dragons and your design reminded me of a dragon❣️

[@dylanbelcher9519]

So i haven't ever done any leather working projects before but i figure this is as good a place as any to start. Just went and got the leather I'm going to use today. Have some tools laying around from other stuff(like leather punch i use to make extra belt holes lol) but i was curious on was size was that 4 in 1 that you used?

[@KatyaKnightwolf]

Great video as always :) so fun to watch. Have you tried Eco-flo Super or Satin Sheen? I see it work well with the gel antiques usually

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Haven't tried any of those in a long while. I'll experiment with them again soon. Thanks.

[@mafq53]

Do you use a dead-blow hammer in place of a poly mallet?

[@oakridgereview1359]

If you wanted a longer "throat" (?) that you feed under a belt, how would you adjust this? Just extend the sides straight up?

[@nixter8739]

Ive been tooling the celtic designs on leather myself lately. I like using a basket weave to shade around designs. And you made me laugh with the holes, i recently made a belt pouch. Counted those holes about 6 times, had them all laid out on the plan, marked everything, punched them and was off by a hole which was easily hidden, just like you said. Any how nice work.

[@lindomarrosa9260]

Nota 10

[@heheheDorgas]

Hii, i love your videos, and I wanna try to do carving, but do you use a ecologic leather or animal leather for carving? I really don't find a accurate information about. So i'm here

[@daviedood2503]

Nice. Hey by the way, if that's a WART on your left thumb, wrap it with duct tape, and leave it for 24 hours. Remove tape, wash hands, dry, and re-wrap it again for 24 hours. Water softens the wart, tape latches to the tiny black seeds, and when you take the tape off, the teeny tiny seeds come with it. Once ALL those little seeds are gone, the wart goes away. I'm mentioning this, bc the Wart can crack open when it's hard and dry, and the seeds can spread to another area and you can also spread that to another person just by shaking hands. I'm speaking from personal experience. Had one on top of my index finger by the knuckle about the size of a pencil eraser. Ended up having total of 13 on BOTH hands bc I just left it. Once I did the tape thing to the first wart ony finger, ALL of the others went away in their own. Subscribed thanks for your videos man these are Gnarly! 💪😎👉

[@strangeenchanter5456]

I noticed you tossed that Pro Resist, what do you prefer to use?

[@MountainFisher]

When I have to lace twice through the same holes the second strip of lace I cut a point onto it and put some white glue on it to stiffen it and it laces quite easily with a smaller hole. I use Tandy's Super Shene two times and let dry for a couple of hours between. Your mistake was one coat, which was obviously insufficient.

[@StudioMarlow]

What´s the best type of leather for the pouch itself ?

[@jjerzey1]

When i was a kid i found a ratty "biker" teddy bear, it was plush and leather, i hacked its ears off added string and sold them as dice bags to the d&d guys. One of those dudes still has it.

[@tabularasagaming9651]

Outstanding. I'm definitely going to start leather working. Been on my mind alot. What mm leather should I get? I know veg tan, I'm in Ontario any good sites I can buy from?

[@DanitaMarie]

Possibly Lens Mill Store? They have a few locations in southern Ontario, and may have some basic quality leathers and faux leathers.

[@user-ew8rp2xx1d]

🎉

[@MamaKat27]

You’re easy on the eyes, Mr. Renaissance Man. 😉

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Oh thanks! Yay for resurrecting comments from a year ago. Hahaha.

[@santiagocortez9554]

I really wanna do leather working but I don't know where I can find leather here in my part of the Philippines

[@ethanhammonds9630]

did you stop selling t-shirts? 5x is a hard size to come by and I can't find a link anymore.

[@steveroush4147]

After using the leather balm don’t you buff it with a soft cloth ? I do. I buy cloth diapers they are very soft without leaving any cloth behind.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Ya, never really thought about it much, maybe I'll play around here sooon.

[@andrewhall9762]

Question what size lace would you use for the punched holes at 13/64"?

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I tend to just experiment. I am unlikely to kno what I'd use just from the number, I'd grab some lace and test it, see how it felt etc.

[@GIGIndustries]

if any of ya know were to get some tools pls let me know thank u

[@johnreed6856]

Where do you get your leather

[@marqueguilbeault]

How many coats of the pro resist did you use? I usually use three. I don't tend to airbrush the pro resist like I so with the resolene.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I just use resolene, can't recall what I did with this video. I just spray one coat of resolene as my resist.

[@dillonpropst1454]

@DarkHorseWorkshop what kind of resist would you recommend? I’ve also had trouble trying to get a resist to actually, ya know, resist the top stain

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Neutral resolene has been my goto

[@dillonpropst1454]

Thank you! And also, thanks for always being so open to questions, I really appreciate it

[@ipmengud8741]

hello please tell me what skin you use and thickness

[@GlockUSMC]

Why do you use the ceramic swivel knife as apposed to a traditional swivel knife? I am beginning leatherwork and I really enjoy the project you share.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Figured I'd try one and liked it and never changed back. Takes some polishing occasionally but doesn't lose its edge like steel.

[@GlockUSMC]

Dark Horse Workshop thanks so much for the information.

[@ApolloSZ]

Would you be able to put slits on the strip of leather to feed a belt through, or would you see additional leather on for something like that? At the other end from the carving I mean.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I personally would add another peice of leather to the pouch. You could do slits bit after all that work it would be a shame to just chop into it. Dig your pic.

[@ApolloSZ]

Dark Horse Workshop haha thanks. I’ve been getting into carving with bookmarks for practice, been going through your videos to learn what I can as I’m wanting to start making bigger things now. Just checked out the belt pouch one too.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

@@ApolloSZ The only way we improve is to challenge ourselves. Make that pouch. :)

[@ApolloSZ]

Dark Horse Workshop going to buy the kit and some drawings tonight!

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

@@ApolloSZ Be sure to send me some pics.

[@bladewarrior4343]

What brand is the metal ruler you use?....Every one i buy ends up being pure crap...Love the Channel brother!

[@MichaelMaysLeatherworks]

great video, How tall/ deep is this pouch? Thinking about getting the pattern, but I'd like to know the dimensions. Didn't see in the Etsy description either. Thanks

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I'm away for a week..but the gusset part of the pattern. One half of it takes about an 8.5 x 11. The pouch is a fair size but not gigantic.

[@MichaelMaysLeatherworks]

@@DarkHorseWorkshop great! Thank you for the quick reply.
