Chief31794 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 Genuine Gator (still has the hunting tag attached to the skins). Whoever tanned and finished this material did a great job, most of it is usable and feels like butter, cuts well and really easy to work with. I have 4 skins in the shop and three are like this one, the other not so much, stiff, hard to cut, very little usable. A good tannery/finisher is imperative for working with this stuff. Interior is glazed pigskin, and a faille cloth liner on the wallet back. Chief Quote
Contributing Member Bob Blea Posted November 11, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted November 11, 2016 Really nice looking Chief! I'm working on a similar one except I am using some embossed cowhide scrap that I picked up. Your looks much better. Quote

I got three of these hides from a guy who had killed them and then had them tanned and whomever he had tan them knew what they were doing, they're like butter and look really good. Chief Quote
