I've heard good things about Herman Oak Leather from Gary Brommeland and other holster makers (Combatcarry.com for source). Guarana posted a link to E-leatherwork.com ( http://www.eleatherworks.com/home.php) from there I found the following item:
http://www.eleatherworks.com/product.ph ... 582&page=1
This is a side of 7/8 oz Full Grain Tooling Leather from Herman Oak. $6.30 per Sq Foot with 18-20 SF per side.
A side is illustrated here: http://www.tandyleather.com/LeatherGuide.asp
I'm thinking ~$115 is too much investment for me at this time but I'd be interested in splitting it 4-6 ways. we can either bid for first pick or draw straws, D and E from that illustration are the choice picks but all of it is good.
PM me with interest.

I picked up a 16s.f. hunk (of no 2 I think) the other day for $4 a sqft...
I probably don't need the whole thing - don't have any new plans for anything big yet... I could be talked into splitting it with you if you're interested.

what're the odds? A Herman Oak 7-8 Oz Veg tanned order? if so, 8 sf would be GREAT!

ah... Gotcha. I keep hearing such good things about Herman Oak Leather so I was looking to try Herman Oak but they're sold only n whole sides (lotsa SF) and you have to find a distributor.
Thanks for the offer though.

if you had your heart set on the Herman, or if you were just getting low!

OK, I'd like to get two more to split but could be talked into any split you want. I'd ideally like to take 1/4 of the side something like 5-6 sf so ~$40

We can do 1/4 (you) and 3/4 (me) if you want.

Dang it... this is what I get for not getting all my required reading done today. I would be interested in a quarter of that if it's still possible. Now to find a peice with 5 quarters.

I'm still interested. I have been told that I should start carrying my 500 magnum so I guess I need a holster for it.
