Rusty Knuckles - Creating Handmade Leather and Etched Metal Goods, One At A Time
Welcome to our home base here on Etsy. You will find a plethora of our items from guitar and banjo straps, to custom motorcycle bags and seats to a variety of other items which we update a regular basis.
Customizing leather started as a practical need, in the construction of a bag, for the ability to carry tools on my motorcycle that weighed approximately ten pounds all together. After creating one leather tool bag as a personal challenge, another one followed and then a few more were made for friends. Another part of our business wass custom merchandise for bands, so we thought, hmmm... why not start making guitar straps for the artists we are so fortunate to work with. These simple beginnings have allowed us to bring a pop up shop to music and motorized events, sell to customers far and wide through our Etsy store and main website and also help to cultivate a true kinship with customers worldwide.
Our products are a unique style of form and function. We choose to keep much of our product line in a standard arrangement, which can then be elevated in a multitude of ways to really customize each piece unique to its owner. In this scenario, we can also keep our prices low for our customers, while maintaining quality craftsmanship for an item that is made by hand, one at a time.
If you are in need for some truly custom items, head over to our Flickr page and view what unique items we have crafted for other customers. If you have any questions, reach out and say hello. We build in such volume in buckles, so if its a unique shape, just let us know and we have a lot of options. If its for a unique motorcycle part, email us and be glad to work with ya for customization.
