Hi guys, I'm looking for some 3mm thick leather pref. in a chocolate brown, and enough to make a dangler for my Condor bushlore and to make a full sheath for a 6" 1 3/4 lb axe. Any ideas please? Thanks for looking.

At the risk of hijacking rather than just piggy-backing this thread, I'm looking for a cheap source of small (ish) bits of leather too.

I bought a pair of gloves from the Pound shop which I unpicked and has given me all sorts of small bits of different coloured leather which I will use in various projects.

Could do with some larger bits though.

I suspect the sensible answer is to bung some swaps up on the Swaps page here.

PS - Sorry but liver is delicious. At least it is the way I cook it. The way we had it at school it was more like a shoe that had been buried in the ground since medieval times.

Thanks Greg.

As it's a BH weekend I'm going to see if I have anything that warrants a swap in the Swwap Page of ths forum - I only need a couple of smallish bits.

I've heard of people getting old sample books from sofa shops - I wonder if that's a serious option?

I got lucky and found an old money wallet like a cabby or a stallholder would use for £1.50 today and the size is almost perfect for the axe plus some left over, with the bonus of a zipped pocket for a diamond sharpener nice thickness too. Just lucky I guess.
