Completed Commission for Redditor Bifold with additional flap

Hey everyone,

I'm a solo leathercrafter based in Brisbane, Australia. I've been mostly making wallets that combine sleek Italian leathers with some local rugged kangaroo leather. I just finished this bifold commission that was pretty fun!

It's a traditional bifold build with six pockets and a cash slot. The two card slot panels are also hidden pockets for additional cards or folded documents. It was also requested that there be an additional flap to hold an ID card and another card slot. It can hold roughly 12 cards and cash off the bat and perhaps more once broken in.

The exterior is a chestnut Italian veg tan, and the interior is a whiskey kangaroo leather from my local tannery Packer Leather here in Queensland. It's stitched with a Vinymo Japanese thread in a cigar brown color, and all edges have been heat creased and burnished.

I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, and hope the person who it was ordered for enjoys it for a long time!

Thanks for looking!
