A very happy customer

This was my second purchase from this delightful seller. I contacted Fenner with some specific requirements for a custom made Field Notes leather cover and he was very helpful in the initial communication. The cover which I received in due course was packaged with great care and is made out of beautiful soft leather, which I'm sure will age well and be a companion for years to come.

Introduction to Leather Work

I recently took part in Fenner Benedict’s Introduction to Leather Work one-to-one tutorial, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. Fenner has a wonderfully easy-going, friendly approach that instantly puts you at ease, while being incredibly knowledgeable and informative throughout the session.

The course was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish, and I came away feeling inspired and excited to put the skills I learned into practice. It was an excellent introduction to the craft, delivered with clarity, patience, and real passion for leatherwork.

I couldn’t recommend this course highly enough and will definitely be booking the next one!

Introduction to Leatherwork

I found Fenner to be a good person to learn with, he is patient,and very knowledgeable about Leatherwork and was flexible to my requirements. The course itself was great, Fenner explained each aspect of Leatherworking to give me an understanding of each process. I was shown how to use tools learnt the basics of sewing, marking out, hole punching, riveting, so many other tools to mention.. I'd recommend Fenner if you are intersted in learning about Leatherwork or just fancy an Arts and Crafts session.
Thanks Fenner

Awesome beads!

This is the third order I have made for these glow beads. They are awesome! Very bright glow and quality made. I put them on knife lanyards and flashlight lanyards to make them visible at night. These are by far my favorite beads for adding a little glow to your EDC.
