holy shitdick dick.......your skull wallet is coming along superbly. how long did you tan it/how much did you oil it?

i tanned mine for only a couple hours - it didnt make much of a visible difference at all. i just wanted to start using the sucker straight away! applied a coat of obeneaufs LP and then started using. its NOWHERE near that dark though, that shit looks like chocolate! good stuff dude.

No tanning, just a little bit of LP.

hmm dick, do you have the logo-side of your skull wallet facing you when you put it in your pocket? because your logo side happens to be way darker than the other side.

i put my logo-side facing outside and the logo-side is lighter than the other side.

judging from the folds of the corners. it looks like the logo faces inwards. am i right, dick? :D

*edit* nevermind :)

This is more for the DIY-ers on this thread -

I recently got a HUGE box of free leather scraps from Horween leather here in Chicago. There's no way I can use all of it by myself so if anyone's interested, I'm willing to send a flat rate priority mail box full of scraps as long as you pay for the shipping. The pieces are all of decent size, suitable for crafts since that's what I told them I wanted it for. Only downside is that they're all this dark brown color but i figure for practice etc it's not too big a deal.

Might take me a while to get these out since my work hours are kinda hectic but I just wanted to see if anyone was interested.

Rome your new KC's Ranchero is absolutely fantastic, maybe a bit showy for me but it is truly beautiful. The chain looks like its straight of a lunging whip. The detailing is amazing and the construction appears to be second to none.

Dick Danger your skull is looking great as well, i can't wait to get mine.

Kiya does that mean you stock the skull mid length caus i couldn't spot it on selfedge.com just the short length. Damn your site is down at the moment as well. I have been interedted in getting a skull mid length. See link below :P

Nah thats the norm, you'll be fine. anyway heres the pics of the KC's wallet I ordered a while back. This is the ranchero model mid length wallet with tan and brown chain. The quality on this thing is amazing so thick, and the leather is buttery smooth.

Hi rome1, would you mind to post the update after wear please?,

What have you done with it? Sun Tan? Oil?

i am really interesting to buy one of those since the size is just right, but how do you like it with the rien, are you carrying your wallet in the left pocket?

Anyone have any experience with the Skull Bea Man wallet? It looks like an interesting design.

Hey DD - would be great to know how big this wallet is - compared to pocket or something..it's simply beautiful..

BTW - only 5 weeks...:D

Anything for beatle.

I'll snap a few tonight, if they don't work I'll do it in the morning. But for now to give you an idea, it is just a little bit bigger than a standard Red Moon. It doesn't stick out of my pocket, but it is a bit thicker. Seems like a perfect excuse to post pics of my butt. :eek:

32 days! woohoo!!!

I just got it so there really isn't any wear on it as of now. I'm pretty sure that this is preoiled. The wallet itself is a cream color not "untanned" The inside of it is natural/untanned. I carry my wallet in my right pocket I just wear the snap facing my ass, it doesn't really bother me at all.

i was fooling around with some leather dyes tonight, i made this. it's a layer of antique black wiped away quick, then a deep purple. I really like it, esp the black inside and the contrast stitching. The photos don't do it justice, I sent a while polishing it and it's all shiney and nice. I think this one is going to my mom next time i see her
