I have some tooling leather that I made an armguard out of.  Enough left for another.  What do you have? You have any copper boppers or other knapping tools? Rock or slabs?  I see that you knap some, and I am trying to learn.

Any of those sound interesting. what size are the boppers?

How much leather are you looking for?  The stuff I have is good and thick.  about 3/16"
