Making a Leather Bag Satchel with an AK-47 / AK-74 Sling. Leatherworking ASMR 

But I said it was a satchel, haha man purse , no it’s a cross body bag, lol man with a purse. If it doesn’t fit in your pocket or holster don’t Cary it in your man purse unless your ok carrying a man purse and owning it.

Thanks! They're on Amazon. Just look up "leather corner cutters". There's several kits from different sellers. Cheap too. Like around $10-$20.

@@RoadAgentLeather Many thanks, you are right, very cheap!

There's several variations of these sets on Amazon. Use keywords "Leather Corner Punch Set" or "Leather Semi Circle Punch Set". They're all inexpensive.

@@RoadAgentLeather Thank you, I appreciate it.

Agreed. At the time I was more concerned about making it slim. If I were to build another I would ad a small gusset (maybe 1-inch) to the front zipper pouch.

BTW - don't take any crap about "man-bags", etc. It's a good looking bag & versatile enough to be useful without respect to gender. Call it gender neutral. Nice job!

@@HermanChelette Hey! I purchased the hardware from Tandy Leather.

@@RoadAgentLeather Thanks! That's where I got my first set (which were too "brassy" as well as too small). The plan calls for 20mm (about 3/4") so I went with 1" from Amazon worrying that they might be too big. I actually put one in a vice and drove one of the strap's snap end through it with a hammer. It works, but not well. I'll try to find some 30mm ones. The other problem with the "D rings", of course, is color. I haven't really found an "antiqued" one that matches like yours do. The 1" ones are gunmetal & tolerable, but less than desirable. Did you blue them like you did the zippers? If so, what finish did you start with?

@@HermanChelette Just measured them. They're the 1-1/2" antique nickel. Getting the sling's hardware through the D-ring was the limiting factor (and was difficult for me as well.) Of course it depends on what exact sling you're using.

Thank you again! You're making my life easier! BTW, I was drawn to your channel by admiration of the gorgeous holsters you make. I really like your use of contrasting colors/textures to give your articles "WOW!" value

Cobra Class 26

thanks for the heads-up!

lol. I can only do so many cowboy holsters before it gets repetitive.

@@RoadAgentLeather well, you DID add an assault rifle sling to it... BTW, nice pre-weathered leather

@@RoadAgentLeather Yeah just ribbing ya. Great content.

It’s European!!!

lol. At least I didn't call it a man-bag.
