Hard or soft rolled horse strips?
darkmatter35 replied to SDeaconandSon's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Not sure but give them a call or email, they are vary helpful John -
I use Vacel Leather, Owner is vary helpful with any questions you may have.

I use Barry King for my thinner leather and Osborne for my thicker leather. I think its mostly just preference. Osborne are cheaper so I can get several sizes but they need to be sharpened. ;The Barry King are sharp and polished when you get them. John

Knife sheath
darkmatter35 replied to Dave Richardson's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Try going to a knife show in your area. There are usually knife makers that need someone to make their sheaths. John -
I use an air brush with a .5mm needle which is not as finicky about the paint consistency as a gun with a smaller tip needle. I do not thin Pro Oil Dye. Make sure you run the dye through a filter to remove any large chunks in the dye bottle. That's all that's to it. John

If you plan on doing this for a while try airbrushing the Fiebings oil dye. I've had nice results. John

Barry King sells Wyo sheen Springfield is vary helpful if you call them John -
If the time comes that you need to sell a professional quality knife, should be able to recoup a good portion of what you paid for it and it will be a quick sale. John
