    That is a fine Man Bag & great use of some nice fabric that was too good to throw away.

    Man purse or not, it's very classy and you've put something to good use
    that otherwise may have been thrown out or neglected.

    I say, :happy096:

    Well done!!

    Beautiful bag! Very well made, from the looks of it. The sourcing of the materials was genius.

    You ought to consider making other bags or gear like this. Maybe a razor head cover like the ones Maggard and Fendrihan sell? http://www.fendrihan.com/images/OCT301DBL_Safety_razor_head_pouch.jpg

    Or the type for the whole razor, for travel?

    If I had sewing skills I'd probably make some of my own. I have one from Maggard that I use to indicate which razor has a blade in it at any given time.

    That's actually a really clever idea. I constantly have to try to remember which one of my 20-something razors it was that I used last and that have a blade in it - especially since they are 50-50 DEs and SEs and I only shave every other day.

    That looks easy enough, I don't know how much to sell for though. And would I just sell them on here or set up a whole etsy thing... Hmmm


    For the sleeve indicating which blade used last, what would you think the top should say to indicate this?

    I actually used to work in a shoe cobbler and leather shop in my younger years, got pretty dang good at it. There's a shop 1 mile from my house that I've worked in helping out, and he's wanting to sell. So I am trying to figure out how to finance something like this. I know there's assistance but finding it is hard.

    Anyways if I get that shop with all its equipment and supplies I could churn this kinda stuff out easily. I love making things.

    If it were me, I wouldn't put anything on top. Then you can leave it up to the user's discretion.

    I see the one on the Maggard site sells for about $3 (plus shipping) and the sheath for about $6... Both in leather. Hard to beat that price... BUT, I have seen others selling on Etsy and elsewhere for a lot more.
