You are quite the Renaissance Man, Mike! I didn't know you made much other than gun leather!

The Buffalo hide was about 8 oz.  which would be 1/8th inch.   The rifle sling is 2 ply with the flesh side (suede or rough side) on the side resting against your shoulder.   The rough side does not slip as easily as the grain side.
