I buy my leather from Le Prevo but I buy it a hide at a time - around £80 a throw! If you're just starting and want enough for a sheath then this link looks good. (Thanks for that, Richard - she seems to have some good stuff and her belt straps are cheaper than the ones I get from Bowstocks.)

I've had hides from them as well. Leather is good quality, but very stiff and the smell from the tanning is very strong (SWMBO made me keep it outside) Tools well though
