Korba Buffalo Calf, Burnishable 100% Vegetable Tanned Hide, Dark Navy

  • 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.

It okay.

It's a nice leather for the price but not always easy to work with. The last few pieces I received were inconsistent in the splitting, it was very thin in many spots.

I was using it in

I was using it in a mold and it did not perform the way I wanted. It did not react like cow leather. It is the first time I used it for this and have been experimenting with it to see fi I can get it to work better. The leather is more paper like and even when doubled and cemented together it does n...

Thank you for your feedback. We understand the difficulty. We do not recommend the Korba Calf Leather for wet molds for this exact reason. The Korba leather is too lightweight and soft to hold a strong molded shape.
