A note regarding the leathers used on this wallet:

This wallet makes use of Cordovan Co.'s excellent reproduction Metta Catharina and Yuft tannages. Each replicates a traditional Russian pine tar tanning method that produces an intense and unique smoky aroma. No other leather smells like these do. The scent is not unpleasant but it is strong, so be aware of this when ordering! 

These leathers are also stiff, even by usual shell cordovan standards. It will take a bit longer to form to your pocket but when it does, expect beautiful patina with age.

"The Gentleman's Flap Wallet"

A more elegant take on the popular flap wallet. Many thanks are owed to the kind folks in the Machined Pens Discord chat for their input on this design! This wallet solves some problems that bothered me with other flap wallets, and I am proud to offer a more refined option for this style.

A single piece of leather forms the body of the wallet, consisting of the back, flap, and the front card slot and closure. Two additional pockets inside give some additional divider space to separate your cards and bills. 

The flap serves multiple purposes: both to protect and retain the contents of the wallet, but also as a means to store your bills in an easy fashion. When stowed, bills fold along the length of the flap when closed and unfold to lay flat against it when open. This allows you to easily sort your paper currency when the wallet is open but still lets the wallet condense into a compact form to fit in your pocket. The right side of the wallet is open to allow easy insertion or removal of bills as needed.

Like everything I make, it is hand stitched with machine bonded polyester thread for superior durability and abrasion resistance. 

The name of this wallet is an homage to my grandfather, whose stories were a huge influence on me as I grew up. He served in the US Navy in the Pacific theater during World War II aboard the destroyer escort DE-22, USS Wileman.
