This is a full project build of our Buckhorn Bag—a rugged leather briefcase-style bag designed for real use.
In this video, we walk through the entire process from cutting patterns to final assembly, including gussets, lining, closures, and strap build.
This is not a beginner project—but it’s one of the best builds you can take on if you’re ready to level up your leatherwork.
Rope bags are one of those projects that look complicated—but once you break them down, they’re actually pretty straightforward. They’re just bigger, and they require you to think through your steps a little more.
In this video, we walk through building a fully tooled leather rope bag from start to finish, including gussets, zippers, straps, and final assembly.
This project also ties directly to our rope bag pattern pack, which includes the cut patterns, strap layout, and tooling design so you can follow along step-by-step.
