Hi, I am looking for suppliers/manufacturers/slaughter houses that I
can contact to obtain raw-hide. When I say Raw-hide I am meaning the
material that has NOT been tanned or treated yet.
I've done the basic research on different grades of leather and
process to make leather. Problem finding REAL suppliers. Most I have
seen are suppliers of finished goods.
I want to buy DIRECT and avoid agents if possible.
I need the Raw/salted/wet product or earlier stage. Please find me
places in Canada and USA first. Mostly interested in Cow-hides but
will also look at other types if you have them available.

Thank you.

Here are two suppliers who can provide rawhide:

Roden Leather

Auburn Leather

Rawhide...Sides of 2/3 and 3/5 ounce rawhide in Natural (Flint) or 
Bleached (White/Cream) are available only through Auburn 
Leather in sides or die cut parts and laces.



Let me know if there's anything more I can do for you on this.
