Looking for leather

Triton · Jun 27, 2001

Hey Guys,

With this new business and all I need to find a reliable source of good leather as cheaply as possible. Anyone have any favorites?

One of the guys in the sword group recently had a catalog with incredibly good prices in it. None of us have ordered from it yet, so can't say much about service and such, but I'll get ahold of him in the next day or two and get their name and maybe URL.

I use these people.
I use a lot of leather in a year and buy in bulk the specials after I've bought a sample to run.

second choice is the specials at hide house
http://www.hidehouse.com/
if you're buying small amounts it doesn't
matter where you buy but if it's in the thousands of sq. feet shipping and a sale prices become important.
Keep in mind siegals pays return shipping if you're not satisfied.

Hey Knifesmith, I appreciate the link, I was just wondering, did you get it right exactly? When I click on it I get an "access denied" error.

Thanks.

Hey Triton!
Sorry it took so long to get this back to you, but I just got the info about 60 seconds ago.

Leather Unlimited Corp - 7155 Hwy B Belgium WI 53004
Credit Card Orders 800-993-2889
fax 920 994-4099

Customer Orders
(920) 994-9464

They do NOT have a "web presence" so you'll have to call or go snail mail, but I suspect you'll find it's well worth your time and trouble to call them up and request a catalog.

They've got the BEST prices I've seen yet.
