Cafolla1 Report post Posted March 28, 2015 where can i find leather that is HEAVY heavy, looking for like ideally 20 oz any leads would be helpful Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinkerTailor Report post Posted March 28, 2015 Assuming you are in the USA, there are several suppliers in the banners at the top of the screen that list leather on their websites up to 16oz. 20 is a rare beast, if it is available still. I would give springfield or weaver a call as they may have a few hides in the 16oz pile that measure out thicker. You may also find hides where only a portion is that thick. I have some herman oak that measures out a range 12-14 but i got a single 18-20 belt out of the side. The possibly cheaper and arguably nicer way is to use 2 layers of leather back to back stitched together grain side out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two 10's glued together and then stitched will give you the 20 oz size, but will be much stronger than a single layer of 20oz. Chief Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
