ABOUT TETON LEATHER COMPANY AND FRANCESCA
From a true artistic beginning apprenticing with a master jewelry maker, to creating beautiful knives as a bladesmith, Francesca found her calling with the art of leather making. Her love for the craft began when one of her knife collectors asked her to make a high-end custom leather sheath for an art knife he had procured. Through trial and error, she created a beautiful piece of art, remembering “When my concept became a reality, and what I saw in my head was here physically in front of me, that was a life changing moment.”
She has been chasing that creativity induced high she felt in 2014 ever since. Designing custom leather goods out of a variety of exotic leathers, such as invasive python and alligator. “Often nature is imitated in the modern world” Francesca says “Nothing can truly capture the precise and perfect beauty that comes from natural materials. Each species offers its own texture, thickness, durability, pattern and characteristics, it’s the perfect challenge for me.”
Francesca is an avid outdoorsman, from hunting, fishing, camping, snowboarding, and surfing, she loves being outside in nature with her daughter Olivia. She often says, “When I’m not working on leather or designing, I’m outside pulling inspiration from the mountains and wildlife around me, then I take that home and create, it’s a cycle that I go through and it’s really fulfilling.”
Bringing to the table a versatile range of professional talent, Francesca is a full-time designer and leather artisan, specializing in high end custom bespoke products. She excels with hand dying hides and color matching, beautifully wrapped skulls, and design and concept consulting for some of the best brands in the industry. Her team of skilled and thoroughly trained leather artisans are proud to stand on her expectation of meticulous detail and deliver the best leather products on the market.
I have 9 other MKC leather sheaths and all fit very well. This one is too tight! I can't get the knife out if the sheath while it's on my belt. I have to remove it and use both hands and pull and wiggle it all around in order to get it out of the sheath. I reached out to MKC customer service and was told this is the correct sheath and nothing they can do about it. SO, I guess this sheath will be placed on my knife collection shelf never to be used again. I have over 25 MKC knives and at least 9 leather sheaths and this is the first negative review, but I am honest in my reviews.
Love MKC leather sheaths so well made they stand above any other knife company's quality. The knife is held so well. Even after long periods of use. No need for the the old school strap over the Knife to retain it.
Thank you for your review Mateo! We appreciate the support.
Very good leather! The fit is perfect. Excellent Quality
Thank you for your review John!
Beautiful sheath, exactly the style I prefer. It is still very tight so I’m working on loosening it up, but that is to be expected.
Thank you for your review!
I am a huge fan of all knives from MKC - they are razor sharp, light weight and an outstanding tool in harvesting game in any field setting. I ordered the Stubhorn for a longer blade for quartering and removing meat from larger game. I am very pleased with the product and look forward to using it in the field later this year. The leather sheath is also an outstanding addition to this purchase - fits perfectly and has excellent retention of the knife in the sheath.
