      It's beautiful, trunkman! Thanks for sharing. I like the way the wood looks. Very rich.

      I noticed that you didn't replace the leather side handles. Do you usually do this?
    3. trunkman trunkman, 13 years ago
      Nah -- I never replace the handles -- unless it is a really valuable trunk, but all my trunks are for myself and I don't really care if they have handles or not -- I am in no way a perfectionist. You can order handles though if you want from a few suppliers.

      One of mine is intact the other is broken. I just put it so the intact one shows, LOL! Works for me!
