popular The Brassy Trail Hound is a unique, one of a kind belt/key fob/wallet chain combo - ready to attach to a wallet. The fob (leather part) is 1.75" wide and has a meandering design along its edge.
The 14" long chain is a cool, rounded link brass deal, it's pretty darn heavy in weight, and has a great greenish/brass tone to it, a jump ring is at its end, ready to attach to a wallet. The color of The Brassy Trail Hound is a deep Mahogany, it has a black edge and I used a cool, slightly off-white thread. The Brassy Trail Hound is riveted at its bottom, to insure structural integrity, no snaps were used.
In this instance, the pictures do not do the color justice, the brown is rich and will get lighter and more interesting over time.
I hooked this series of Fobs with a unique, one of a kind, brass "bead" hanging from it on a piece of black latigo lace. These beads are made by hand, by craftsman in Africa. These are non-blood beads, rest assured and the local lady (a beading freak!) I get them from works with the folks in this village (she visits 2x a year) to design and manufacture them. They are totally tough and well done, a real compliment to your fob-wearing self.
You can attach key rings or other stuff to this unit it's a nice change from the "norm" of clipping your keys to a belt loop. The solid brass forged "D" ring is 1.25" wide, its a well baked setup. I've done alot of testing.…
Each of these Fobs has a one of a kind brass domed skull concho, that you will not see anywhere else. The attachment for the solid brass D-ring is a kooky dyed manta ray - totally sick!@. Paul Cox craftsman of repute, gave me a bag of manta scraps and I found a way to use some of it, thanks Paul.
These fobs are all fully lined and glued, then stitched and finally riveted- these stinkers will last a lifetime and look perfect as they age., This is a nice looking accessory for your belt - different enough to be noticed, cool enough to be distinctive.
I hang my keys, my belt bag and connect my wallet chain to mine - handy, like I said
The first two images shows the specific Fob for sale, the last is of this unit on my own belt - to show you how it looks for real..
I also make knife and tool sheaths from heavy weight vegetable tanned cowhide. I've made guitar straps, leashes and wristbands - all with a different look and design as your commonly used to seeing. If you're looking for something you don't see, ask. I am always up for a challenge, within reason.
I have happy customers, please take a look:
