Thanks to a very kind gesture from Denny, I received today a sample of the aforementioned hide. What a lovely, intoxicating hide it is indeed. I will most certainly use it for my pending order, which is just about a week away. Thanks also to Carlos for his tip about the shade, which really peaked my interest. It's very reminiscent, to me, of Cordo in that it has chameleon like characteristics. It can look very black but as seen in in the pics I think it's got a very deep pine, evergreen tone. The stitching color definitely leads the eye. For reference that's a lagunitas little sumpin' and it's straw orange through and through
