Check out Opinel knives. Simple, light, many sizes and inexpensive! I have a #8 the most popular size and it was $12!! Quality steel that can be sharpened easily. They also offer stainless blades for maybe a dollar more. Way better than any of those made in China knives for practically the same price! You won't be disappointed.

Those look pretty cool. I just bought some cuben that I want to make some bags out of. So what did you use as far as needle and thread size? What kind of seam did you use? Do you have any other hints or tips for cuben?? Thanks

So here is Barking Bear Bagworks seatbag version #1. I'm very happy with the results. Pretty standard build VX21, ballistics-1000d-500d cordura, plastic framework, 1 and 3/4 inch webbing, side release buckles. Once I got all of the pattern pieces figured out it wasn't too bad. I just had to figure out the sewing order. Let me know what you think!

Hello,
I sew custom bags and also work in a bike shop. We happen to have a large Tallboy in stock so I could trace the frame for a pattern. We could discuss any other features you might want as well. PM me if you are interested.
Thanks,
Jason

So just wanted to thank everybody involved with this group buy. I hope everyone is satisfied with what they bought, how long it took, how much it cost, etc. Please PM me if you have any comments, praise or whatever. It was kind of a pain but, not too bad and it brought me into contact with a bunch of cool people. Also when we need more fabric I can do this again to keep it simple for Hale at DP. He ended up being very helpful by the way. My wife might not approve but, she'll bet over it.
Thanks,
Jason Snell
