Your art is one of sophistication. Match the quality of your skills with a hand stitched leather case to carry your top tool selection.
The Vesper* is a slim case made entirely of premium grain leather. It slides perfectly into the breast pocket of your most dashing suit, or even (heavens!) in the back pocket of a pair of jeans. For the sake of your tools, however, don’t sit on it.
📖 See details on how I make the Vesper.
Available in two colours:
Evening Black: A perfect match for Submariner scoundrels and black tie sorties. Very finely textured premium full grain leather. The firm, slightly waxy finish resists scuffing more than most leathers. Deep, consistent colour throughout.
From the highly respected Wickett & Craig Tannery (Founded in Toronto, Canada in 1867)
Matte Rustic Brown: For the fedora-wearing archaeologist-type who’s into whips and exotic travel. A resilient matte finish, with a rugged old-world feel. Flexible and soft yet strong, this sanded top grain leather has unique colour variations and character that evokes heirloom thoughts from day one. Areas of use will naturally polish and darken to create even more patina as it ages.
Distinguishing features:

Four slots for a variety of organization options.
- Locksmiths and Locksport:
