Holster & Sheath Leather - 5 Pound Scrap Bag - Assorted Sizes/Shapes - Crafting/DIY / Leatherwork - Havanna Brown

2nd time purchasing, excellent quality leather, roughly 1/8th thick that I use for sheaths for my knives. In regards to the last review, my leather the first time came taped that way, but they listened to the customer and this time came rolled in a bag and taped shut, therefore eliminating any sticky glue, etc. Good job guys, keep it up, i'll be back for more.👌

Nice usable pieces of leather for making knife sheaths. I was a bit nervous thinking I was going to get a bunch of useless scraps but didn't. They were all large usable bits of leather the will work for my projects. My disappointment is in how the roll up the leather and wrap it in packing tape. The tape was difficult to remove and left bits of glue and tape on the leather. Maybe consider wrapping the roll in stretch wrap or something instead of tape? I would easily give 5 stars if it wasn't for the mess made by the tape.

I'm new to working with leather, so I'm not an experienced judge of quality. That said, this leathers seems to be really good. About a medium thickness and reasonably stiff -- good to use for projects I have in mind like knife sheaths and small pouches. Love the deep brown color, too (I don't want to mess with doing my own dye work just yet).I weighed the package when it arrived -- was almost exactly 5 lbs. It contained 3 large pieces (I can get a *lot* of projects out of this), and they were rolled with the flesh side on the outside of the roll. The roll was secured with what looked like clear packing tape; but since the tape was on the flesh side of the leather, it came right off with no residue and no marking up of the grain side.

I had no expectations in buying this, as I’m a newbie and just needed some leather to practice on.The package was slightly heavier than 5#, as I was unable to weigh it on either of the 5# scales I had available.The leather is thicker than what I’ve worked with, so that will be a good experience. (And I’ll get skiving practice. ) The pieces are very long. There is. 15” ruler in the photo for scale and the underlying table is about 5’ long.Luckily I’m still in the “small project” phase, so I’ll be able to make use of the narrow cuts.Definitely worth it depending on your intended use.

Great weight on this leather. Very close to 5lbs according to my scale. Large areas! I’ll be able to make a lot of cool stuff with this!!
