camano ridge Report post Posted November 13, 2013 I have an order for a holster and the customer wants black Ostrich inlay. Anyone know where I can buy Small pieces. I need about 6" by 6" would buy up to a square foot and willing to pay per sq ft market price just don't want to buy a whole hide for 3-400.00. Need Ostrich skin with folicles not leg skin. Springfield does not cut ostrich they sell only whole skins. They do have an ostrich scrap bag but can't guarantee there is anything big enough.

Shooter McGavin Report post Posted November 14, 2013 Call up Springfield and talk to one of the girls. A couple weeks ago they had large ostrich "scraps" available for a reasonable price. They dont always list everything they have on their website. Plus I bought this one time and it had some nice usable pieces in it along with some trash. http://springfieldleather.com/26223/Pieces%2COstrich-Asst.-2-lbs/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
camano ridge Report post Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Thanks, Shooter I had already called Springfield they could not help me out thats why I posted here. I did order one of the scrap bags but they could not guarantee there would be a large enough piece or that there would even be black in the bag.

Matt T Report post Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) You can get some smaller hides on ebay for around 200 bucks. The guy that sells them is in Israel. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Ostrich-Skin-Leather-Grade-4-Hide-Black-9-70-FT-/350921989150?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51b4949c1e Edited November 14, 2013 by Matt T Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shooter McGavin Report post Posted November 15, 2013 Probably not going to be any black in the bag, but thats what dye is for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
