Does anyone know how to find the info behind this when companies say something like this? Take company Linjer for example, how can I actually find out where and what these factories are?

I've been to Maverick a few times. Cool people working there. I usually get my leather from Wicket & Craig, however. I'd like to visit Hide House one day...

Nice! I'll have to give this a try.

*cough... cough*

Feel free to only release it to me for now Can't wait!

Any hints as to when the iron comparison drops?

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge on where Panerai sources this stuff from? Or anything similar, really. I understand it's calf but how was this tanned? Any info appreciated.

I can't recall the size of the needles as they're from Tandy when I first started but I used 532 Fil au Chinois Lin Cable. Cheers

That was quick. SOLD!

Hey guys, I have a brand new set of Euro style pricking irons. I bought them off the Bay which takes about a month to receive in the states. The only time I've used these was for the photo to show their marks. I do use another set of the same make (3.85mm) that works great. Selling these because I'm happy with the look/spacing the 3.85mm gives. This is for all 3: 10, 5, and 2 prongs. Asking $18 shipped to ConUS.

Thanks. Would the 2 ply be equivalent to 432?

How does this stuff compare to Lin Cable? What would the 3-ply equate to? 432?

That looks great. Any photos of the underside? How thick is the leather?

This sounds about right! Can't wait for the review.

@Nigel, thanks for the pic! I don't suppose you tested out the Chinese European style irons that can be had on eBay?
