    Wow! That's incredible. It looks like a tremendous amount of work went into that tooling.

    That's an awesome sporran. I'm learning how to do Sheridan style carving and I can appreciate the workmanship that went into it.

    That is really nice sporran. However, with my luck, one of the leaf tips would fall off and that's all you would ever notice after that!

    Wow, that's a beautiful sporran. I love the tooling. Oak happens to be my Clan's (Cameron) plant badge. Thanks for sharing the pics and link.

    Wow, great work. I would love to have something like that. I know a Druid in Denver who would really Jones for that Oak Leaf motif! Eh, HawK?
