Leather Working

Skill Overview

Leatherworking is the craft of shaping hides and leather into armor, clothing, containers, weapon fittings, and other useful goods. Leatherworkers measure and cut their materials into individual components before shaping, thinning, punching, lacing, sewing, or riveting those pieces together into finished items.

The craft is capable of producing everything from simple belts, pouches, and knife sheaths to backpacks, boots, scabbards, and protective equipment such as cuirasses, greaves, helmets, manicae, and pteryges. Finished leather goods may also be further embellished or improved through techniques such as lining, embossing, and the application of metal studs.

Most leatherworking projects are completed through a series of recipes. Individual components must first be produced and worked before they can be assembled into the finished item.

For guidance on using the skill set, see the Leather Working Guide(in progress).
