All-In-One Billfold Kit

The All-In-One Leather Billfold Kit is a complete, hands-on leatherworking kit designed for Scouts, leaders, and families. This kit introduces basic leatherworking skills through a practical project while providing everything needed to create a finished leather billfold from start to finish.

Kit includes:

• Billfold Kit (parts and directions)
• Six large pieces of assorted animal hide
• Materials to make a lanyard and Turk’s Head knot
• Spray bottle of leather conditioner
• Step-by-step directions

This kit is designed to help Scouts work through the requirements of the Leatherwork Merit Badge, making it ideal for merit badge workshops, troop meetings, and camp programs. At the same time, the clear instructions and functional project make it a great option for patrol activities, family craft nights, and introductory leatherworking experiences.

Leatherworking projects like this are also well-suited for den and pack activities, where youth can practice basic hand skills, follow directions, and complete a useful project in a group setting. The all-in-one format makes it easy for leaders and families to plan a successful activity without sourcing additional materials.

Whether used for advancement or as a fun skill-building project, the All-In-One Leather Billfold Kit provides a practical and engaging introduction to a classic Scouting craft.
