Title: Arm Guards
Post by: sentinel on July 27, 2011, 01:18:00 PM
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.

Wish I was going up there because it'd be nice to have one that is one of a kind.

Does anyone have Grant's phone number?  I tried the one I did have, but... it just rings.

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

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.
