leather for knives :cool: I HAVE SEEN THAT PEOPLE ARE ASKING ABOUT GOOD LEATHER??MUIR&MCDONALD CO OF DALLAS ORE,HAVE THE BEST LEATHER YOU CAN GET,,I USED TO WORK THERE,ITS MADE LIKE THEY DID IN THE 1850s..you can reach them at 1-800-547-1299,ask for lisa,tell her i told you about them,they will do you right,,no bull-"""""""""""""" royboy
 
I can second that.
I buy all my leather from them. Very good people, and good leather.
Of course, I basically live just down the street from them.
 
I've heard of them, but never used their leather, do you know how it compares to Weaver Leather out of Ohio? That's where I get mine from...good stuff from them as well but always ready to try if something is a bit better!

Gary,the bark tanned leather from Muir & Mcdonald is done the old natural way as royboy noted,it is not nearly as corrosive as leather in which chromatic salts are used,it also molds very well,has no memory (the correct term)so it will retain it's molded shape,if you dip it in ,oh say,lexol np,it takes on a nice golden brown color.I have used it for many years and like it a lot,if you use 8-9 oz now,go a little thicker with M&M 10-12oz.They are great people to deal with.
