How to Make Buckskin From Deer Hide

buckskin

Making leather products requires one very essential resource: leather. Some people think that once you remove the skin from the animal, it can be immediately turned into any product you desire, from bags and jackets to shoes and pants. This couldn’t be any further from the truth.

In reality, all hides need to be highly processed to make them remain malleable once they’ve been shaped and dried.

Buckskin is highly prized leather due to its strength and suppleness. Despite this fact, only a fraction of deer hides is converted into buckskin because many people lack the resources, knowledge, or need to make use of the hide of the animal.

If you want to be one of the few who can make your own leather products once you’ve finished out your hunting season, follow the steps on how to do so on the next page.

    This is not a very good how-to. Not separated into steps. ‘Dressing mixture’ is not detailed at all. It’s like watching ‘Alaska the last frontier’ to figure out how to homestead.
