WANTED: Veg tan leather!

[Samon]

Yo,

I'm finding myself in need of some leather.. 3-4mm and of good usable shape.

Got bits to trade, antler, exotic wood etc so please let know if you got any.

Atb, Samon

 

[John Fenna]

Erm - how much do you need?

 

[Samon]

Not really sure, I need to make a sheath or two and I'd like to make a few smaller bits. Do you or anyone else know what sort of dimensions I may need? I've never ordered sizes before so I have little experience on what I'll need..

 

[John Fenna]

A sheath with a "double Dangler" and double welt for a 5" bladed knife plus a fire steel loop will take about an A4 size piece of leather.

 

[Samon]

Oh that's quite a bit, 8x12"?

Still I'm looking for some, preferably around that size of a4 as John said! Cheers

for smaller amounts eBay is your best bet mate, A4 size for about £8.

I buy shoulders that are 15-20sq ft but would struggle to beat that price.
