These are amazing! Think you can make me an exact replica of the wallet image that existed in the application before Gavin changed the splash screen image?


Scratch that. Think you can place the design that you have on the Hashed wallet on the darker colored Pioneer wallet instead? If so, how much would that cost?

I want it to look as much like this: http://dribbble.com/shots/774944-Bitcoin-Wallet as possible.

Yes, to all your requests. The ONLY difference in the final product and with the image you provided is that the wallet will be laced and not sewed. The cost will be exactly $200 USD via BTC via BitPay via my barn wood website, and that includes shipping/insurance to probably most any place on Earth. If you decide to go with it, there's a couple other design aspect you'll be able to incorporate during the ordering process as part of the overall package.

To reiterate what I've stated in the past, the bike enthusiasts don't go installing anybody's hand-tooled leather seats onto their prized bikes. The same quality and workmanship depicted below is incorporated in each hand-tooled leather wallet.



Also, at :37 in the following video, Jay Leno is signing the USO bike that has Martin's seat on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTPRdGbyVfY If I'm not mistaken, all the bikes in this video has his seats as part of their design features.

Woah $200? I thought they were about 70-90 USD.

I know this is a old thread but I found it browsing I sent you a PM would really like that one wallet with the throwaway ID holder.

Of which I replied.

Since this has been bumped again. I would also like to know if your willing to do more. These are great.

Wallets, laptop cases, notepad cases, purses. If Martin's work is good enough for museums, Jesse James, Jesse Ventura, Steven Tyler, and almost two dozen magazines, I'm sure he'll be able to do any design you can possibly throw at him to be tooled on leather.

He doesn't use any cheap leather, and he's considered an old-school artist, whatever that's supposed to mean, but believe fellow artist do.

Hit my up via a PM if you're interested.

I'm always chasing museum pieces Smiley

Hey Bruno, I'd be interested in a hand tooled leather belt.  Let me know of any prices/designs available.

I look forward to your PM outlining your design requirements. I will dole out all sales of hand tooled leather products purchased with Bitcoin up to $100 USD (or the first $100 USD for higher priced products) to Bitcoin100.

From this day forward, all wallets sold and paid for with Bitcoin will have the total proceeds go directly toward Bitcoin100: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-100-developed-specifically-for-non-profits-52543

My brother-in-law, Martin, will still receive the total selling price, but in fiat, paid to him from my personal Chase checking account or in cash. This offer applies to any other hand tooled leather product you desired produced by Martin Basurto, regardless of cost. Simply PM me if you would like to place an order.

I love my new bitcoin wallet!  Really snazzy and rugged.  I'm sure it will outlast me.  Tongue

Martin wanted me to tell you, Al, thank you for your kind words and purchase (I paraphrased).

Others, here, have purchased wallets (and one saddle) and paid via Bitcoin, but I've opted to keep their transactions private unless they mention it first on this thread.

One thing i feel bad about your leather wallets.
we can't store bitcoins directly in it.
That's very bad.

Sure you can, he's making some with coin pockets, just get some Casascius coins. Smiley

Have you thought about doing something like this?



Now that would be cool.

That way, they could actually be BitCoin wallets. :-D

These sure do look great!

But also for the EU you will want to offer one with a compartment to store coins. Euro currencies means lots of coins, as they go up to 2 Euro coins and a gazilion smaller ones. OTOH smallest bill is 5 Euro.

You might also want to check if EU driver licenses fit, especially considering that here everyone always carries driver license, and identity cards. The new upcoming licenses are small (like our electronic identity cards) and I think ought to fit, but the current ones are pretty damn huge. Almost as big as standard international passport. If you need the dimensions Ill measure mine.

BTW, there is a slight irony to having a bitcoin wallet carrying legal tender and unable to carry bitcoins. I kinda like that Smiley

I like the hashed wallet but here in Australia coins are a really big thing because we have all our 5c,10c,20,50,$1,$2 coins etc. My current wallet has a zip section for coins.

Yeah but it's such a pain between the butt cheeks to actually carry that coinage in a little zip pouch inside the wallet. It aways bulges too much. It's hard to sit on (when carried in the back pocket) and really isn't good treatment on the wallet. I always keep my coin change in a front pants pocket anyhow. Only notes/cards go in the wallet.

Hey Bruno! I wouldn't mind picking up one of those lovely wallets (one with the big bitcoin logo on the front). They really are beautiful and I can see the quality just oozing out of them. I want to pay in bitcoin though, that's what we're all here for after all. Also if you want to have a couple on display at the Aust. Bitcoin Expo, I am happy to take orders. That goes for anybody with genuine hand crafted products (not middleman retailing of Chinese imports). Also, I need a good leather whip for my new girlfriend. I haven't found her yet but I'll know her from the way she responds to the whip. Tongue


Quick note: I don't do the hand tool leathering--my brother-in-law Martin Basurto does...  Martin's into the leather [scene] whereas I'm into paddles wood.

Oh! and I thought you were the leather guy.  Roll Eyes Well hows about some displays of your woodwork handicrafts? Hmmm? Cheesy

Just to make sure everyone here understands--Martin Basurto (my brother-in-law)--does all the hand tooled leather work. You can say that I'm doing the marketing for him. Here is why (site he created years ago and still active): http://www.dreamevildesigns.net/

Well hows about some displays of your woodwork handicrafts?


I used to build primitive furniture and crafts, but now I just supply the wood to the crafters and makers. I can easily throw together a handsome shelf of sorts for any needed displays.

I'm now accepting Bitcoin. Yes, I wrote "I'm" for I'll be collecting the BTC payments and paying Martin the cash. I/we feel Martin has enough headaches dealing with PayPal, his main source of revenue. When the time arrives that Bitcoin is more mainstream, or the process is easier for him and grandmother to use, he'll switch over. This is even a better option because I'm more apt to spend the Bitcoin, oppose to Martin converting BTC to $ and buying stupid stuff like cow skins.  Roll Eyes

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe Martin has made whips in the past. After writing that sentence, I thought about Bitcoin themed whips (after writing that sentence, WTF am I thinking?--I can see the Thread title down ~ Boycott Bitcoin Leather). No soup for me for one year!

Let me know when you're ready to order, Karmicads. Beforehand, have some design elements in mind to personalize your wallet.
