Sturme Report post Posted November 13, 2019 I have heard that horse hide is a bit tougher than cow hide and supposedly doesn't stretch as much. but i have never used it myself. Some people swear by it but i feel that any difference would be negligible as long as its quality leather and stitched. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kcinnick Report post Posted November 17, 2019 I have always used double layer HO leather. I didn't like horse hide for holsters or belts when I tried it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
