I am in need of some leather material for a leather grip. Where can I purchase some at? Looking for a darker material like Buffalo hide or similar. Also, am looking for some sinew or similar material to stitch the grip together. Where do you guys get all your material? If anyone has some extra they would like to sell let me know.

michael's crafts stores have both; if you're married, ask your wife where one is...she will know, LOL!!
Pick up some old purses, boots, coats....many leather items in thrift stores that will yeild a lot of handle, striker plate, and rest material. And it's cheap too.
I have some Leather and artif seniw I will send you for free. The color of the leather is the top cap and pocket on this quiver I made
