The "hand" that supports Brooklyn is not one.
In order to make one wallet, many "hands" are involved and build up.
That is, we cannot accomplish by our Brooklyn craftsmen alone.
However, it is also true that the "craftsmen" that should be proud of the world, which have stored a lot of technologies in their "hands and heads" and pushed Japan into the country of building, are declining year by year for various reasons. 。
Here, I would like to convey a little "handicraft" of such craftsmen.
First, what is needed to make Brooklyn is "leather".
This goes without saying this.
The story of "Yamato", which was created with Japanese tanners and tried and error, is another story, so please take a look.
After purchasing a sticking leather, do it to make a product.
That is the theme of this time.
"Cutting" = From one leather, the process of cutting the parts of the items you want to make using the drain (mold)
As a major premise, the size of the leather is different, as everyone has a different body size.
And there is absolutely no uniform leather like cloth or fabric.
So leather cutting uses nerves.
This is because the leather changes "flexibility" and "aging method" depending on the part, and the expression after using it also changes depending on the direction of the fiber.
In particular, Brooklyn's quality leather is not so large, so the area to take accessories is limited.
In addition, the parts that meet the quality standards of Brooklyn are limited, and everything can be used from end to end. In addition, depending on the items and parts, the parts used are divided, such as "I want tension" and "where I want to finish it as softly as possible". There are dozens of items that can be done.
It doesn't mean you just need to cut it monotonously.
Probably, you may think that even if you explain so far, you do not have to be that kind of mind. In fact, a craftsman who asked for the cutting refused, "I don't like Brooklyn's work because it's troublesome."
The work of the craftsmen eating "how much the amount could be cut in a day".
You want to avoid such a troublesome job as much as possible.
Nevertheless, we continue to convey the desire to say, "I want my favorite things for a long time, fun, and I don't want to compromise on any process."
"It's fine and hard, but it's worthwhile."
While laughing a little bit, I was able to come across a warm "hand" that always did perfect work.
Without this craftsman, you can't even start making products.
It is a very important job.
