Members Kanga Posted July 8, 2007 Members Report Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) Redhide is used for things that cop a beating. I've made some bridle reins from it & they are my knock about reins. When I first used a new set on my old grey boy it rained & the dye came out all over his neck. He was a very pretty pink for a while. They wear really well & never need oiling. It's also used for stockwhips, but not the fancy ones, it's used for the working whips, the ones that could get covered in mud & cow dung. Yes it is alum tanned cowhide.
