I finally got around to making myself a new flint wallet. I hate the stalls normally used to hold flints. In my experience, they're either too small and the flints won't stay in them or they're too big and you can't get the flints out of them. I solved the problem by putting in a small zippered pocket to hold them.
The body, pocket, and trim are made from deer hide. The purple and beige "bling" is ostrich leg skin. I sewed everything up by hand using artificial sinew. While it is doesn't look like something from the 1700's, it is functional and pleasing to my eye so I guess that's all that matters.
