Alligator Sporran

[highlandtide]

Ok so I won the auction. Anyone here want to make me a sporran? Anyone know anyone here that can make a sporran? I know of someone but it might not be easy to get an alligator into Norway.

I won't say that I wouldn't mind trying.

However I think this maybe a job better handled by Rudi or Craigie Or even the guy that Matt knows

Best of luck . It'll be one heck of a sporran

Watch you don't loose a hand when you close that beastie Hank

I'm glad YOU won it Hank, sorry, but that is the last thing I would want to see in a sporran!
A fox head is a close runner up

Congratulations on your new sporran Hank

If you haven't found a sporran maker by the time you head into King of Prussia, bring it along so that I can see the condition of the skin. With that, I may know someone locally that can do the job. All he needs is a pattern to go by (which we can do). He custom makes bags, baseball gloves, chaps, and Renn Faire garments.

Saw this one on the L&M website:

Talked to my mother and she still has an old alligator purse. She'll hunt it up and I can have it. It has the head and all on it. It'll probably need some treatment because I imagine the hide is pretty dry but it should make a neat sporran. We'll see how it looks when she finds it.

Truth to tell, I don't care for the head-on sporans. and I especially think the alligator head sporran is hideous.

If y'all like 'em, go for it. Just don't expect me to build one like it.


BTW, that is a real nice alligator sporran that Raphael posted.
