Another premium whistle lanyard on its way to its new owner. Please note the new name for Xanthos Leather. Twisted Hide will still bring you only the finest leather products and we hope to expand the range shortly.

Prepared for a client. This is the premium version of our popular whistle lanyards and a slightly different design. Using the finest kangaroo leather which is hand-cut, pre-streched, trimmed, chamfered, stained and polished. This is then plaited and rolled by hand using a combination of a four-strand round braid and gaucho eight-strand round braids. The lanyard is then finished with a quality brass bearing-swivel, mini-clip and gaucho knots made from deer rawhide. Kangaroo leather is superior to calf lace in both flexibility and durability. The price of one of these pieces is just £65.00

So I've cut some new lace and decided it was time for a new lanyard for myself. This is black and tan with bleached rawhide knots. The tan leather is plaited around the brass rope-eye and then forms the core of the eight-strand gaucho roun braid plaited back over the top of it. If you would like one like it drop me a message.

Bespoke Game Carrier in paracord, leather and brass. Each of the leather game carrier sections clip on to the D rings at the end of the paracord strap, making it easier to transfer birds and can even be hung from a suitable belt. The paracord is a combination of four colours. Pm for further details.

Hand stitched collar for a visiting (Southern) Lurcher. I like the simplicity of this piece and whilst I love making paracord leads there's nothing quite like working with a nice piece of English bridle leather.

Getting ready for the season and don’t know where to get your game carrier from? Look no further. Hand stitched, personalised game carriers that don’t just look good but also are strong and designed to last when carrying the birds on a shoot day. Please message me for more information and to place an order.

This one was obviously designed for my daughter who wanted a spice of pink in her life for this season 😂

By all accounts the Cunningshot First Aid for (working) dogs was a great success. Kudos to Emma Stevens and Thomas Stevens for all their (his) hard work. Good to see Xanthos Paracord dog leads put to good use. Available to order in many colour combinations just £20 plus p&p. Messenger us with your requirements.
