I saw a set of reins the other day, that were at least 3/4" thick and about 8' long and they were very supple. They looked to be made from one piece and not laminated. They weren't colored and very little (other than a good job of edging but not burnished) was done to the leather. That I could make out.
They were new and un-used and I was able to get my hands on them, so I got a real good look at them.
my question..
Can anyone tell me about this type of leather?
Is this a normal weight for rein leather? I've never seen any this thick. where would a person find such nice leather?
Thanks
Joel
