Members TXAG Posted January 9, 2014 Members Report Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) ...the back. Though someone is certain to come along and easy that "there's no right answer" in order to get people to buy off on THEIR answer...but the correct answer is along the back/spine is used for the reason you mentioned...

Members lightingale Posted January 10, 2014 Members Report Posted January 10, 2014 TXAG is spot on. To add to his answer, the back is often called the "bend" when you're buying leather. It's the back piece with the shoulder and belly cut off to make a mostly rectangular cut of hide (and the most expensive part). Quote
