SPLITTING

Leather splitting is a custom service available down to your preferred thickness

Please note split leather can't be returned

There is a tolerance to leather splitting. While we have invested a lot of time and training into hitting a tighter tolerance range than advertised, sometimes the  leather articles and differing densities require the full tolerance range. 

Leather tolerance is denoted by +/- which means the leather can be both above and below that number by the denoted amount.

  • Example 1.2mm +/- 0.1mm.
  • This means that the leather could come anywhere ranging from 1.1-1.3mm across the hide. Most the time this amount is indiscernible to the naked eye, but should be noted if measuring with precise equipment

How we gauge the leather is with a thickness gauge that can reach both the edges and middle of the hide. We apply a moderate amount of pressure (Not too hard and not too soft)

Again our tolerances are tighter than the tanneries. We are usually well inside the range, especially on panels, but occasionally need the full range. Tolerance ranges are as follows: 

Splitting Panels: +/- (0.1mm).

Splitting Full Hides & Half Hides:  +/- 0.15mm

No Splitting (From Tannery Splitter):  +/- 0.2mm

  • The width of our splitter is 27-28 inches. If you have a hide that is larger we will trim the hide to fit and return you both pieces. We cut off the belly section leaving you the nicest area of the hide in tact.
  • Due to it requiring often multiple passes we do not send the split flesh part.

New "Double Shot" Pullup Leather is tanned in Milwaukee, WI (USA) by Seidel. The Seidel tannery has been going strong for 75+ years and is one of the few remaining tanneries in the US. They have ample experience and are true masters of their craft. 

The Double Shot is one of our favorite new leathers for its beautiful pull up, smooth finish and buttery hand. This article is full grain and has a nice supple feel with healthy amount of firmness. The grain has a natural beauty and depth to color and contrasting 7 colors. 

One of its best attributes is the pullup, this comes from a unique multiple hot wax process that infuses the wax into the leather.  The end result is a beautiful and rich leather that shows its pullup as you open the fibers when folding the leather. Near the belly you can get some really cool contrast in fat wrinkles, the center of the hide is the really clean area. These hides are Seidel's top grade and will give you nice large areas to make bigger projects like totes, bags and duffles. We know you will love this article and are looking forward to seeing it in your coming projects! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

    With a natural product like leather, there can be areas with neck and back wrinkles, veins, scars, bites, loose grain, but in general this article can expect an overall high cutting area. Double Shoulders also increase the cutting yield due to having no bellies where most the defects and loose grain are located. If you require large cuts for bigger products like totes, duffles, etc., we recommend whenever possible ordering a full hide. This leather being full aniline (meaning the leather is very natural with no extra finishing on the surface to hide any flaws) darker colors will better hide any areas of concern. A key skill of using full aniline leather is the ability to work less desirable areas of the hide into the less visible areas of your projects.
