Engraved here in Horsham, free

We engrave on the bench in our own shop: up to 150 characters in Lato, centred, on up to 5 lines, engraved inside on the right panel, inside on the left panel, on the front or on the back, your choice. Most makers charge for this; we don't.

Order by 5pm Monday to Friday, or 11am Saturday, and it is engraved and posted the same day. If we get it wrong we remake it free; if the text you typed had a slip in it, we remake it at cost.

Two stepped slots show every card at a glance

The stepped slots are the detail that earns its place. Each card sits a little lower than the one behind it, so the top edge of every card shows. You can see which card is which without pulling them out.

A larger slot with a curved thumb cut for the card you use most

The larger slot has a curved cut at the top. Push a card up with your thumb and it comes out — no pinching at a leather edge in a queue.

How many cards does it hold?
Three slots — two stepped, one larger. How many fit depends on card thickness; a couple per slot is comfortable.

Can it be engraved today?
Yes, free, on any order placed before 5pm, with no limit on the wording.
Does it block card skimmers?
No. The Diplomat and Distinguished have RFID blocking built in.
What if he doesn't like it?
An unengraved wallet can come back within 100 days for a refund or exchange. An engraved wallet is personalised, so it cannot be returned for a change of mind, but faults and our engraving errors are always covered.
