    I can't speak for Gairloch's cost, but the cantle alone retails for almost GBP40.

    That is a nice cantle! What is the source???

    Dirk - The sporran looks very nice and usable, and I also have some goof fur that I want to make into a high class dress sporran.

    I want to make mine a bit bigger than the norm, and I really don't like the normal way that dress sporrans close.

    Give us some detailed "lessons learned" please. What all will you do differently next time?

    Any good sources for cantles also.

    Thanks

    Wow, looks good. That is inspiration for me to do my own. (After I finish work on my day sporran and after I finish my brother's motorcycle saddle bags) I also am curious how much the various clan art pieces cost.

    As mentioned above, the cantle Gairloch used retails for around $76 plus shipping.
