How we make our No.52 vertical leather wallet (old version)

This video is pretty old you can watch the updated version here: • Making a Vertical Wall...
In the last year we've sold around 1,100 wallets. The No.52 has by far been the biggest crowd favorite. So per request, I filmed a quick video to give a little behind the scenes look and show you how we make the Vertical wallet.
You can buy a finished Vertical wallet here: www.stockandba...

Beautiful workmanship. A rarity anymore. I used to have my own embroidery business until I was injured in a car accident. Loved it. Good for u. Looks like a family business...even better! Thank u for sharing this. So amazing. Lin

[@justafoolfru]

WOWW I never thought to use a squeeze bottle for rubber cement! GAME CHANGER! Thank you!!

[@maggs131]

Its stuff like that that infuriates me that I didn't think of it and its brilliance. An old wood glue bottle would be perfect. Lays a flat patch of glue and a closer is built into the cap

[@cstrubes1]

When I first saw this I immediately purchased the glue bottles. It has been such an asset! This has been a total game changer and has made applying cement SO MUCH easier! Thank you for the tip (and for putting a link in the description). Your videos are tremendously helpful!

[@twagirimanaserge8052]

Hey am also a leather worker from Rwanda . Thanks I have learned a lot from u. It's really cool nice Work.

[@Redbeard_Sagas]

I have watch most of your videos and blogs and fell in love with your products you make. Just this weekend I finally had it with my mass produced faux leather wallet and bought myself one of your No. 68 'Buck Brown' Western Vertical Leather Wallet. It was a hard choice between the No. 52 and the No. 68. I like the western look of the No. 68 wallet and went with it. I can wait to get it in my hands and be amazed at the craftsmanship and quality in person as I have been watching you make them on your vids. Thank you for your vids and the awesome products you share with us keep up the great work.

[@whitandpark]

Right on man! Thanks for picking one up. Thanks for all the kinds words and watching our videos. You the man;)

[@goodshit1234]

Hello, I love this wallet. I really do. I'm a beginner leather crafter, and I'd love to make this, but 25 dollars for a template is very high. Most places do 5-10 dollars. I think you would get more sales on the template with that price. I love your work, and I hope for the best. Thank You!

[@AlphaMachina]

Wow, that is really good work. I just started getting into leather work. My mom gave me a massive storage chest full of different types of leather, leather working tools, threads, wax, stains, glues, etc. So I'm really excited to start with that.

[@darkstarcrochet]

I love that you actually use a sewing machine for stitches. It just looks better and yr not punching holes bigger than you need to. I would start and end the stitches on the thinnest piece of leather (the outside piece) for a stronger stitch hold.

[@markrichards3747]

My Mom and my sister gave me mine and I love it. Everything is right about this wallet. The cards fit perfectly and I can fold my bills in half instead of in thirds like I had to with my other card wallet from another maker. I wouldn't change a thing about it. And thanks for the videos, it's cool seeing the process.

[@whitandpark]

thank you for the kind words Mark. That feedback is really important to me. Cheers!

[@Wherry78]

Love your content. I’m starting to learn myself and am excited to try out your design and just dive in. Can’t wait to grow in this craft

[@mrdobalina3451]

Keep the videos coming guys. My wife and I enjoy watching them.

[@whitandpark]

So glad to hear that. Thank you for watching!

[@roselillo6753]

Your sewing is so neat!

[@b.b.r.6520]

20 years later. Hey you still have them free wallets? ha,ha love ya man.

[@JM-ig8mf]

I just ordered vertical buck brown and a card holder on line. So excited and hopefully receive them by Christmas.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Checking out some random leatherworkers and found you, nice wallet. I keep wanting to make one but coming up with something original in the world of wallets is a bit tough. I'll see if I can come up with something. Love that knife, buying one.

[@whitandpark]

haha I agree. There's only so much innovation that can come out of the leather wallet world. But it's fulfilling nonetheless.

[@MrTomdemma]

could you customize it with a name?

[@Redbeard_Sagas]

Dark Horse Workshop and Stock and Barrel combined skills and craftsmanship and make a knot work Norse/Celtic themed wallet or even messenger bag together. Love both of you guys vids and think that would be sweet to see the two of you combine forces.

[@roryoconnor7239]

Me too. The knife is dope. Thanks for the link. The flat handle looks like it's so much easier to keep an eye on your cut line.

[@saintnickalook7641]

Hey Stock & Barrell, thank you for the vid. ya'll have inspired me to make a couple wallets so far! i have pretty much all the tools i need. have some leather coming in tomorrow i think this is the wallet im going to make next. really want to move into this as a full time job eventually. thank you for the inspiration

[@Demigod3331]

Love what you do and best of all, it's made in US and by someone who shows true passion and care on the product the company produces. I will most likely purchase the No. 54 but still comparing it with the No. 52, since I like to carry it in my front jean pocket.

[@darrw1873]

i got one a few years back and i love it this wallet is great! since there are hardly anyone using real leather... or leather that is any good to make wallets any more. theses are amazing its like the one my grandfather gave me when i was a kid. sadly someone stole it.... i believe this wallet will be the last one ill ever need. however ill buy them as gifts and tell anyone who ask where to get one for themselves

[@whitandpark]

man thank you so much!!

[@TacoViolator872]

I'd love to get a hand made leather wallet. Everyone I see is a cheap minuscule amount of leather. I'll have to see what else you offer. Nice work.

[@Monkthegod]

I remember coming across this video when you first uploaded it. I've been using this wallet for years, still holding up. Sad to hear you sold the company though

[@willie_mccoy]

I can't see the grooves...but I can feel the groove. Dig it.

[@amandabarnes2620]

Thank you so much for posting this. It helps beginners to see the process.

I just ordered this wallet , can’t wait for it to come in 💯

Gorgeous design. Love the video. Subscribed. I make wallets in South Africa and it is great to see other crafters making great content.

[@paulromansr5850]

Nice wallets, I like the vertical wallet its different and not typical.

Man what a cool trade! Nothing better than a piece of art that lasts a lifetime. I've been looking for a custom knife roll to house my fishing knifes. Have you ever built one?

Best wallet making video on KZbin. Are these still available to receive? The ones you made on the video?

[@jmcknight63ify]

Sure would love one. Those look badass.

[@KevinConnery]

I absolutely would love a wallet made right on the channel for me.

[@Prussia_is_not_yet_lost.]

Quote "I don't see the justification in the price". I was thinking that as well before I got my Cowboy 4500 machine and started making a similar (IMHO better) wallet design (pattern from the internet). Your stitching is better than mine but mine will be more heavy duty I believe since I pass it over with more stitching (I use Tex 270 thread and an #26 needle I believe as it came from Neel Harness and Saddlery). I got the machine just a week ago or so. If anybody Protests about this guy then consider this: It takes me 2 hours and 50 minutes to finish 1 single wallet (Start to finish. I dont glue parts on). I sell them for 15 US$ roughly (I never sold one but I offered a known Person one for 9 US$ but plan to sell them for at least 15 US$). I live in Southamerica and in this country 1 square foot of leather costs 2.25 US$ (it's a bit thick for wallets but more heavy duty it will be). I just leave the edges as they are and dont buff them out like the guy does. So before you critisize it is a chore of work to do a wallet and it's easy to mess up when you hurry up or put the parts on wrong side and have sewn it on. For american pricing a Price of 30 US$ I would consider normal. His stitching is good guys and that means something. Good Job and kudos!

[@bellot1]

would like the larger one....love it!

This week I’m getting my Consew 226r. Where can I get the patterns and the leather and what weight leather did/do you use for the wallet?

[@MrViolero]

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with the world. I lost my job almost two months ago and I decided to work with leather, which is an old dream of mine. Well I almost have everything to start but the saw machine, that's an expensive thing. Would you suggest to buy a new one? a second hand one? which one would you say is the best to start? I want to do back packs, as well as wallets and maybe some women purses (...I don't know if I should dare, lol). The arm sawing machine is a good option? Wait for an answer, thank you ! Javier

[@yayofalcom]

I got here too late!!! But I can use one...LOL by the way great work!!!!! Love it

Is there a PDF file with instructions on this or just this video? I just purchased this, but would like a printable instruction ! Thank you so much

Is it to late for a wallet ? I would love one even if it’s made out of different colors or left over materials . I think that would make a great video .

I would love to have one of that in smaller size....where it fit card like barely...🤗🤗🤗

[@matthewnesbitt4033]

do you make combination pouches for knife/flashlight to carry on your belt?

[@timwoods8483]

Hello. Great videos. Love seeing and having the detailed explained. Question, I understand you are using 3/4 oz weight leather, how do you get the leather so stiff? Is this a spec item when you purchase or a process you do? The leather I have seen is quite flexible and not suited to my projects. While the leather in your video seems perfect. Thank you,

[@titus4166]

I'd like to see a video using a hand crank sewing machine that you can get for like 130 bucks.

[@qdoan17]

With all things considered such as the craftsmanship and the materials, how are the wallets so cheap?

[@whitandpark]

I'm glad you have that perspective. Most people ask me why they're so expensive. But for those who are familiar with handcrafted leather goods we're actually at the lower end of the spectrum on price. Most of that is credited to the fact that we cut out the wholesale margin in our prices. So we no longer sell to retailers and stores, and we put all our focus on selling directly through our website so that ALL of our customers get to buy our products at our wholesale pricepoint. Or in other words, direct to consumer pricing:)

[@qdoan17]

@@whitandpark I respect that; I shall be grabbing myself a wallet, provided that the 'Buck Brown' color option comes back in stock. It looks AMAZING! Keep up the work!

All you have to do is loosen the screw in the end of your line groover and slide the cutter out and put it in the other side for left handed useml.
