ABOUT TETON LEATHER COMPANY AND FRANCESCA
From a true artistic beginning apprenticing with a master jewelry maker, to creating beautiful knives as a bladesmith, Francesca found her calling with the art of leather making. Her love for the craft began when one of her knife collectors asked her to make a high-end custom leather sheath for an art knife he had procured. Through trial and error, she created a beautiful piece of art, remembering “When my concept became a reality, and what I saw in my head was here physically in front of me, that was a life changing moment.”
She has been chasing that creativity induced high she felt in 2014 ever since. Designing custom leather goods out of a variety of exotic leathers, such as invasive python and alligator. “Often nature is imitated in the modern world” Francesca says “Nothing can truly capture the precise and perfect beauty that comes from natural materials. Each species offers its own texture, thickness, durability, pattern and characteristics, it’s the perfect challenge for me.”
Francesca is an avid outdoorsman, from hunting, fishing, camping, snowboarding, and surfing, she loves being outside in nature with her daughter Olivia. She often says, “When I’m not working on leather or designing, I’m outside pulling inspiration from the mountains and wildlife around me, then I take that home and create, it’s a cycle that I go through and it’s really fulfilling.”
Bringing to the table a versatile range of professional talent, Francesca is a full-time designer and leather artisan, specializing in high end custom bespoke products. She excels with hand dying hides and color matching, beautifully wrapped skulls, and design and concept consulting for some of the best brands in the industry. Her team of skilled and thoroughly trained leather artisans are proud to stand on her expectation of meticulous detail and deliver the best leather products on the market.

- IMIan M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoGreat Upgrade
This leather sheath is an awesome upgrade from the kydex one that comes with the knife. Don’t get me wrong, the kydex works flawlessly but I prefer leather for my hunting knives. The stitching and leather are top notch and the knife fits this sheath perfectly! I would definitely recommend this sheath to anyone who appreciates great-looking and functional craftsmanship. Thanks again MKC!

Plastic sheath is junk knife came out while wearing didnt no it until I cut two fingers and 5 stitches. Also had to sharpen knife out of the box. I personally believe the stone wash was not done properly worst I've seen . I don't think I will purchase anything else from mkc
