Genuine Leather Tooling Sheets 1.8-2.0MM Thick Full Grain Oil Tan Crazy Horse Cowhide Tooling Leather Sheets for Crafts Tooling Sewing Wallet Earring Hobby (Brown, 6"x12")

Great smell...just what I wanted

I bought this to do my first leather project. Although I don’t journal, I made a journal cover. I cut, rounded, polished the edges, punched the holes, and sewed with complimentary colored thread. Then, I added a long elastic band that threaded through the cover, allowing me to attach four journals inside. Finally, I added the elastic to keep the cover closed. I love it. I tuck a pencil inside so it’s always ready. I find that I can pick up the notebook to make my notes without getting distracted and forgetting what I was going to note down. When I pick up my phone to make a note, I get distracted by an important message, notification, alert, appoint, or whatever, and after quickly addressing that, I forget why I came there in the first place. That never ever happens with the notebook. Anyway, the leather is nice. It has a nice patina, feels nice, and smells fantastic. I’m glad I bought it. I do buy leather in larger quantities now direct from the leather shops, but they’re usually veg tan, not this oil-infused leather. I’ll but it again in the future.

Seems to be good quality leather, did a couple small leather slips as practice with scrap leather before trying out this one. It was much thicker than my scrap but just the right thickness to feel substantial and durable. I did all the work on this with just a Swiss Army knife, I’m sure if I could make something really beautiful from this if I bought the correct tools. I’d say I have enough room out of the sheet to make 2-3 more items of this size, the leather darkened considerably when I oiled and waxed it but that is to be expected. It didn’t seem to take wax as easily as my scrap pieces. A lot of brown was getting onto my cloth and some streaks occurred when oiling so I assume it is dyed to some degree, overall good size and value though

This leather is NOT for tooling. This is oil tan leather and will not take and hold stamping. Vegetable tan is what you need for tooling, carving, stamping or dying. However, what I got can be used for items such as key fobs, card wallets, earrings and such. Just be aware of what can and cannot be done with this stuff.

nice leather

The smooth side of the leather was virtually black - the color of a dark roast coffee bean - and not even close to the photo description. Not only was the color WAY off, it had a shiny appearance which was very inconsistent across the sheet. At first I thought had some sort of protective plastic material on it, but discovered that it didn't; it was just some sort of black greasy surface coating. When I wiped it with the pad of my finger (not the nail) it left a black residue on my finger and the leather changed color from just the soft finger pad. The only thing positive about it, was that it was real leather. The second issue was that when it was put in a padded envelop for shipping, it was folded twice, which left two very distinguishable streaks across the entire sheet. I returned the product immediately.

I was genuinely impressed with the overall quality and consistency of these sheets. The leather has a smooth, supple feel with just the right amount of thickness for small craft projects. It cuts cleanly, holds its shape well, and has a nice, even finish with a rich color that looks great in finished pieces. The surface has a soft, slightly oiled texture that makes it easy to work with, and minor marks buff out easily with a cloth. Each sheet arrived flat and free of defects, which made it simple to start working right away. For crafting, tooling, and general hobby use, this is a solid, reliable material that delivers exactly what it promises.

It worked great for engraving on my shot glass holders

As described, protects my knee from flintknapping

The leather has good quality. I use this Item for my premium leather craft.

Excelente

No es ni el color que indica, ni es piel autentica, es piel sintética..

Very disappointed. Scratching over the surface
