    Re: My new flask wrap!

    Wow! Nice work.

    Out of what you have there I'd think Laphroag. Get a little smoke outta that tree!

    Very nice leather work there. I'll put my vote in for the Laphroaig.

    Wonderful work. As for the proper holy water for the christening I would go for Glenfiddich myself. However, you find yourself of being in the enviable position of being able to play a couple rounds of "eany meany miney moe" and having no doubt you will come up with a winner.

    Re: My new flask wrap!

    It is nice...but how much trouble is it to get the flask out of the leather. I notice the belt loops are sewn on and not snaps. I'd need a quick release on my design!!!

    Regarding your Scotch collection...very impressive. I recommend you add a brand called Tomatin. I love their 12 year...much better than Glen Livet or Glen Fiddich. It has the aroma of cherries from the casks that it is aged in...and a very distinctive flavor. I picked it out at a blind tasting session. I buy it for $28 a bottle here in a local grocery store (sometimes $23 on sale).

    Re: My new flask wrap!

    Not sure what I like more.. the sporran, the flask, or your hootch!

    Really a beautiful flask wrap, but I do covet that sporran. Very nice

    Beautiful craftsmanship! I'd inagurate your new flask with the Jura!

    Cheers,

    There's Ardbeg sitting there, and you people are pushing Laphroaig? What's wrong with you?!?!

    Oh yeah- and I love the wrap! I love floral carving. I need to learn to do it one of these days, myself. And the belt loops are a great idea.

    Re: My new flask wrap!

    That is absolutely superb, I definitely need to look into getting one of those as I recently had to simply forgo my wallet to fit a flask into my sporran - but hey, it's all about priorities, right? Also, I'll second the notion for Glenfiddich.
