The Part That Decides It
A bifold fails at the fold. That seam takes the entire load every time the wallet opens, and on a cheap wallet it is one line of stitching through a glued lining. It gives way, the lining separates, and the wallet is finished while the leather is still fine.
Nobody in this category names that part, which is how it stays the cheapest thing in the product. We name it, and the lifetime cover is written against it.
