Crocodile embossed Bordeaux leather wrapped pen.

I actually got this wrong on my website, called it Gator. Not sure if the Crocs or Gators care but I'm sure someone will let me know about it. Anyhow, the pen is an Aero twist. The Crock is actually cowhide leather embossed with the pattern. I cut the leather to size, trim it, stamp stitching holes in it. Then I glue the leather to the tube and stitch it on while the glue is drying. The leather wrapped tube is finished with leather balm with Atom wax. Comments & critiques' are welcome.

Very nice. I love funky, different materials. Stitched leather ranks very high! Well done.

Very nice Russell. Have you thought of perhaps making a matching PEN SLEEVE out of faux croc leather? I have made many
and have a steel clicker die to stamp them out. If you want I can post a few photos when I return to my workshop on the weekend.

I would love to try that, thank you.
