Hi, I’m Axel - the resident leather smith at Corvid Blu. I’ve been working with leather for close to a decade, joking about it becoming my retirement plan to keep me busy when old age hits. I started in my teenage years making leather Viking hats with rabbit fur linings, and picked it up years later when I realized that I had a desire to get back into it.

The workshop we’re focused on making custom leather pieces, but when there’s no work order in I like to go off the rails and make some fun pieces that I’ve been dying to make. Like a set of archery gear, a hand-sewn lettered belt from legends of old, or just a regular old wallet that I’ve been meaning to upgrade. I have plenty of projects in the works so be sure to check out my YouTube channel for updates in the workshop.
