Wickett & Craig Natural Tooling Leather - 3-4oz

Premium vegetable-tanned natural tooling leather from renowned American tannery Wickett & Craig. This 3-4oz weight (1.2-1.6mm thickness) tooling leather is the perfect medium-weight option for a wide range of leathercraft projects.

Crafted through traditional vegetable tanning processes, this natural leather features exceptional stamping and carving properties, allowing for crisp, detailed impressions and intricate designs. The 3-4oz weight provides ideal flexibility and durability without being overly rigid or too thin.

• Knife sheaths.
• Custom holsters.

Wickett & Craig's commitment to quality is evident in every hide, with consistent thickness, minimal blemishes, and excellent cutting properties. This American-made leather is environmentally responsible, utilizing natural tannins from plant materials rather than harsh chemicals.

Wickett & Craig Leather Grades:

Wickett & Craig leather is available in several grades to suit different leatherworking needs and budgets. 

• Standard Grade offers the cleanest overall appearance, with minimal natural marks and imperfections, making it an excellent choice for premium leather goods where appearance is important. 
• Utility Grade may contain more natural characteristics such as scars, wrinkles, brands, or other cosmetic imperfections, but still provides the same quality vegetable-tanned leather and is a great value for projects where maximum usable yield is less critical. 
• Special Grade typically features more noticeable natural markings or surface imperfections and is ideal for smaller projects, practice work, prototypes, or leatherworkers looking for quality Wickett & Craig leather at a more economical price. Because leather is a natural material, markings and usable area will vary from hide to hide.

Transform your leathercraft projects with this exceptional natural tooling leather that combines workability, beauty, and lasting durability.
