Volcano/Ben have you treated your wallet with oil or is that natural. Mine is a bit over a year and yours are both much darker than mine

Mine.  About 4 years, no treatment (that I can remember)….

[grandmasterben]

Mine is a year and a half I think….and I've definitely treated it with one obenaufs. But only one time I think.....yours looks great Jeff! Just keep rocking it and it'll get dark eventually

[Giles]

In da shop….

D666, i've treated mine just once or twice of Mustangs Paste and that's it.. been thrashing it and throwing it around.

and I just got a recent comment about how hideous and dirty my wallet looks. oh well…

[grandmasterben]

Dude, your wallet is beautiful.  May I ask what they thought was beautiful? If it included shredded up jeans straight out of the factory I think you know who to trust

[Snowy]

pretty sure this'll be the next wallet I purchase. Hope it's still around when I need a new wallet.

What are you using now Snowy? Here is mine reporting for duty. Treated with mustang paste.

Anesth; Kawatako currently @ 5 months old; (http://25.media.tumblr.com/628a2efbb5cd068550f68f97dab3f931/tumblr_mlg7uufO2k1s289z4o4_r1_500.jpg) [not linking as to not 'shit up' the thread]. The Kawatako is still too thick, and the patina it's developing, doesn't seem to be reflecting top quality leather. I've got a Wild Child sitting in the wings here, so once/if I start working on that I'll pick up IH-FW :). Hence hoping it's still around, as apposed to just pulling the trigger on.

You have good taste my friend, both brands make excellent leather goods. I have the WC wallet myself, BUT I found myself liking the IH better. Whereas I do miss the silver ring and the cool pattern that you will get on  your pocket, the IH is more compact and just oozes quality. Lucky for me, I'm a total wallet whore and don't really care how many I amass. I think I'm at around 30, so I'm set for life, as is all of my family after I'm gone.

Cheers mate, admire your tastes too :). I'm up to 3-4 wallets, so still doing okay, this wallet has been calling me for over a year, it's time will soon come

[grandmasterben]

why the sale mate? yours look fantastic…

[grandmasterben]

It really does, but as with most things I just get a little bored

[Giles]

Old and new…..

[Anesthetist]

I'm a huge fan if the IH leather pieces and even though I now use cordovan wallet I feel like I'm cheating on my IH-FW.

[Snowy]

Very nice.

Wow How Long Did That transformation Take? WhAt Did You Use And How often Did You Apply?  Seriously Sick

[Giles]

It's about 3-4 years.  I had one from the first batch we made. I don't think it has ever had any treatment, possibly one Obenauf LP, but if so it was years ago.
