Received my order from Murray Leather today! Rifle cases, pistol cases, and two duffel bags from my Zim hippos. Incredible looking Leather and Dick Murray makes some nice stuff!

Looks really nice! Are the bags pretty heavy?
 
Really good looking gear. And yes the guys at Murray definitely know their work.

A friend in RSA had a case made with hippo that had also been dyed black. The scars on the hide added some incredible character. They are pretty evident on your tan case as well. Really nice.

Who tanned the hide for you?
 
Very nice Philip.
 
Those look great!
 
Dick Murray makes the best stuff.
 
Does the hide have texture? Close up please!
 
Did you have the hippo hide tanned there or here?
 
Looks great, Phillip! I am having my buffalo back skin tanned now from my trip in May and Murray's is on my list to get a quote on rifle cases.

TCI in Bulawayo did the tanning
 
Looks great!

I've got to get something done with my hippo hide. It's tanned, just haven't decided what I'm doing .
 
Like the look! Thanks for sharing
 
Very high quality goods! Love it!
