Four years ago at the BBTC I purchased an arm guard made by a gentleman named Grant Patton. So far this has been the finest arm guard I've owned. Not only does it look great but it goes on quickly & easily, stays put and holds up to allot of use. Grant is a retired Marine and does this more as a hobby than a business. He'll be at ETAR and should have some available at the swap meet. I hope you get a chance to check them out.
The top left is mine and has seen constant use for 4 years. The others were made this year for my wife and son.

Those go beyond just 'nice leather work' to pieces of art. Very impressive.

Nice work!
When I talked to him at Baltimore he was talking about retiring from leatherwork. Might not be making them anymore. He did really nice work.
Amazing!
They look good but the email address keeps getting rejected
HOLY CRAP!!!! Those are just awesome.
I would like to contact him for some with our logo on them. Do you have his contact information ? If so thanks in advance.
