The template was another one from Odin down in Texas. The hide was a 2-3 oz Cognac chrome tan from Montana Leather Company. On this one, I tried laser engraving out for my company logo and spent extra time dyeing the edges black and burnishing to a high gloss.

Looks nice but just fyi I would have all cards in something that blocks rfid nowadays. Granted you can get the individaul card sleeves. although they might peak out.

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm still in the learning stages and haven't yet figured out how best to hide the RFID blocking material in something so thin and minimal. The sleeve may be the only real way to do so and not lose the aesthetic or longevity of the piece.
