KBarRanch Report post Posted January 28, 2016 I was wondering which suppliers some of y'all were ordering calf hide from. I'm wanting it for cartridge loops, this is my first time making them but I'm thinking of using 4-5oz? Does that sound accurate? Also do you have to order the whole side or can you purchase it in different cuts? Thanks for any help -Trevor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KBarRanch Report post Posted February 3, 2016 Thanks guys! Troy I do you know if the soft-veg tan, milled calf hide from Springfield is any different than normal veg-tan calf hide? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
italiantanner Report post Posted February 3, 2016 Yes, it is our own e.shop. We are a very old Italian tannery and, in 2014, we've started to sell also on.line ... with great results Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cigana Report post Posted May 2, 2016 I would recommend Orion Calf Ltd they have beautiful french calf - traditional anilin box calf, soft calf and burnish able calf. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
