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.

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.

[Anesthetist]

[czarofny]

I have the wild child wallet in black. In short, I love it. Will definitely outlive me. The quality and workmanship are outstanding. Highly recommend.

How thick is this thing?  I am looking for something I can switch between my jeans and dress pants.

Mine is at home and I'm not but without the center piece, this wallet can do double duty IMO.

[stingray1381]

Thanks, I have the Wild Child, and it can't do double duty.

Here are some comparison photos between the WC wallet and the IH-FW as requested ( sorry they are a little dark). The FW is much more manageable, especially if you don't wear jeans everyday.
