I wonder if these guys ever thought about making saddlebags? They're probably be really expensive, but really unique.

All straight cuts, no finished edges, looks like slam rivets to hold it together, no stitching. Fast to make. Most difficult part was the concept, pattern and marketing.
The price..................effin unbelievable.

All Palmer And Sons items are custom built one at a time. As such each one will have some uniqueness about it. You will never see two identical items.





Pity the poor cow that gave her life for that crap. Looks to me that this Palmer dude has the deftness of a one armed cobbler, the good taste of a Neanderthal, and the eyes of a blind deep sea crab. After admiring his leather crafting, I took great pleasure at admiring the handles. It's apparent Mr. Palmer is equally adept at wood work.
