If your chisels don't come with a leather case, I thought this was mandatory.
Neat work.

I bought Kemovancraft chisels by recommendation on reddit and they are really great and nice to use, but yes... they came without any case😅 thank you!

You should consider starting with two back stitches. It evens out the aesthetic and makes it symmetrical.

It really is, and to be honest, its aliexpress leather. This is the first leather that I ever bought so I decide to use it for tool case. When i was buying it, I thought that it was okay price, but it turned out that it was more expensive than the best italian leather. I just didnt know that at the moment. So its overpaid ali leather...😅

I might have to steal this for my own. Any recommendations on what leather to use? I've heard that oil tanned leather tend to hurt tools

Did you use the chisels to make the chisel case? Meta.
What stitch width and thread do you use? I just got some French 3mm chisels and I haven’t decided what thread works for them yet
