RingSun Genuine Leather Sheets for Crafts 24''X24'' Full Grain Leather Tooling Leather (2mm) Thick Cowhide Leather Pieces Square, Red Brown

Good leather & well presented .

I got the 12x24 piece of Dark Brown leather. I wanted to make my own planner cover - nothing fancy - I just hate it when planner covers have the button/buckle strap and the cover doesn't lay perfectly flat - so I got my own piece and made a cut for an A5 ring binder mechanism and also an A6 personal size ring binder mechanism. I was delighted that I was able to get 2 cuts out of the 12x24 piece. The item came carefully rolled and wrapped - so when I unrolled it, there were no marks or scratches. Now I am able to scratch up and mark my planner cover exactly how I want so that it achieves a nice worn look to it. Great value for the money. The thickness was perfect for me - pliable to flop how I wish, but also thick and stiff enough to be protective and hold it's shape. The dark brown color looked like the image description - or maybe a hint lighter than the image - could be the angle I look at it. I was able to cut it with a pair of sewing scissors and punch holes in it with a belt hole punch. I did not try to sew it. I'm looking forward to getting other colors in the future.

I’m no expert in leatherwork but I needed some good heavy leather to make the hinge on a very special cedar wood box I was crafting to contain a fine art book. I used hand made copper nails, and added some Sno-Seal waterproofed to this leather, cut and punched the piece and was satisfied about longevity and feel. I also used it for the button latch, and to edge the box display stand that I made too. Very high quality stuff, and not a ton of leftover materials for me too.

This would have been a 5 star rating, If the description was correct.In what I can only assume is an attempt to appeal to as many search results as possible, this product contains many incorrect descriptions. The description of this product reads "Genuine" and "full-grain", which are two contradictory statements. The description also reads "tool-able", which is untrue, as tooling can only be done with veg-tan leather, which this is not.The product seems to be "Genuine" (machined) leather, which has a suede layer made from split full-grain leather. This is the result of the "flesh side" trimmings from full-grain leathers (A process called "splitting") being compressed or combined somehow to a thin layer of leather. This helps cut down on trimming wastes. I am unsure what animal this product is made from. The top-grain of this "leather" appears to be oil-tanned or heavily oil-based.This product however is extremely luxurious-feeling. The surface is VERY smooth to touch, and has a VERY beautiful "pull" effect. "Pull" leather, in the leatherworking world, describes the characteristic of the leather to discolor as it is "stressed" or bent/crumpled. This allows for that classic "distressed" look of leather as it ages, with visible colored creases in the directions that the leather is bent. This allows for a truly unique color pattern.This product does scratch and blemish VERY EASILY. Scrapes or abrasions from fingernails, sewing needles, or simple bumps, are VERY visible. Light blemishes can be buffed out, but buffing will affect the color due to the "pull" effect.OverallCons:- Incorrect description with as many keywords as possible used to describe productProduct is not: "full grain" or "Toolable"- VERY easily scratched/blemishedPros:- Beautiful "Pull leather"- Extremely luxurious smooth surface- Very PliableMany reviews speak of receiving inconsistent products, which include scratches/blemishes or incorrect colors, however after 2 purchases, this has not been the case for me so far.

Worked great for the project that I was using it for and it is real leather, heavy duty but easy to work with. Very happy with purchase.

Exactly what I ordered came on time and professionally wrapped.Will definitely get again if I need more.Price was reasonable and quality was excellent.

Made in China and it feels rubbery. Used some for a knife sheath. My leather cutting tools are having a hard time punching through and it does not take a leather stamp at all. Even with a 9oz ball peen hammerConsidering covering my craft table with this material. My new sheath is incredibly durable as it doesn't scratch like leather. I did resort to using a drill and some new sharp bits for making holes for stitching. My leather punches did not want to go through and the holes close up unless you have a hole puncher.I can't shape it like leather either. A sharp hobby knife will cut very cleanly. Does not sand very well with 60, 80, 120, 220, 300 or 600 grit paper.Material glues well. Kinda wish my work boots were made out of this stuff.Seems extremely water repellent. I think it's a great choice for generic holsters or sheathes.Works very well as a hobby mat.

This is a nice leather sheet. But it's not 12x24. It didn't come in the carrying bag that is supposed to.
