Some Restrictions

Korba Buffalo Calf, Burnishable 100% Vegetable Tanned Hide, Black

  • Korba Buffalo Calf: Our premium line of Buffalo Calf that we call Korba comes in full hides in 2 weights and sizes. The characteristics of Buffalo Calf are similar to that of traditional cow leather. Strength and durability are essentially equal. The primary difference is the grain texture. On Buffalo you will see a less uniform grain and more character when compared to the more uniform grain on a cow hide.
  • Highly Burnishable: The key element that sets our Buffalo Calf apart is the degree and beauty at which the leather will burnish. Burnishing the leather by rubbing causes the oils to come to the surface making it shiny and lustrous. You can either burnish the leather as you make your product, or our favorite, to let it naturally burnish from use. Over time our Korba leather will darken and patina beautifully. 
    • To burnish the leather yourself we recommend that you use a clean soft brush or cloth, the same kind you would use for your shoes, and gently rub the surface.
  • Korba Buffalo calf is great for small leather goods such as wallets, key chains, journals, shoes, bags, high-end accessories, and much more.

Amazing leather!

Great leather to work with,especially if you're a beginner like I am and trying to learn. I will say it's a very soft supple hide and doesn't bevel well but the burnished edges are amazing. You can't beat the quality for the price and size I will be using this a lot.

Korba Buffalo Calf

I really like this leather. I have been making minimalist wallets and it cuts and sews wonderfully, very little color transfer to the thread.

For bookbinding.

The black calfskin was not as stiff as the purple. A little more suited to bookbinding. Thinning the edge for a turn edge will be a bear. Smooth finish means semi gloss, not ideal.
