Mine was 17 years old when I replaced it in 2017. King Ranch front pocket wallet.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

20 years and it was used when my cousin gave it to me. I have lost it in the middle of pastures hunting and dropped it at a gas station once. Some lady found it and returned it to me (she lived over an hour away) with all the cash still in it. I gave her all the cash for her honesty. It always finds its way back to me.

First one about 25 years. My better half gifted me the second one cause the first was worn out(she said). I thought it was a little frayed at worst and broken in at best. But as was said on “Open Range”, “it’s a gift, you don’t have a choice”. So I excepted it and have had it about ten years. When we run into Ron and Suzi with Wildgoose at TWA I have to warn them to lie to her that it’s discontinued so she won’t buy me another one.

Remember when cowboys carried them in their left hip pocket and a can of Skoal in their right hip pocket?

Daughter made me a Tandy wallet kit that she put together but she had a good leather stamping kit and did all the stamping on it.I think she did it in 1977 and I carried it til the lacing gave out.I don't know how old my current one is.

Bobo, what the hell is that? It even has a barcode on it. I can’t make sense of it. It was a Trayvex Axis. Bar code is a Membership card #. A lucked out a really nice guy found my CHL and put it in my mail box. He left directions to the rest. Pre Lawn mower

Almost 18 years. Got a wallet at a white elephant Christmas party in 03, nobody stole it from me, didn't realize until the person who brought the gift asked me if I noticed the brand, I hadnt. It's a Coach bifold wallet plain brown leather. It's lasted longer than any other wallet I've ever owned and shows no signs of wearing out.

About 7 years. Took my wife to Mexico on a dive trip for her birthday and she bought me a caimen one while we were down there. It's held up really well.
