And here it is.  Finally!   The red looks even better than I thought it would with the cork.  And yes, that one in the back is different.  I found a red strap with a crocodile print embossing that was long enough to cut into two handles and just enough extra leather to make one up.  I like that red with the cork even better.  So I’ve claimed it.  Now, besides being quite light in weight, cork is as durable as leather, environmentally friendly and naturally water repellant.
