TAKE TO LUGGAGE REPAIR SHOP MOST ARE FAMILAR WITH EXOTIC LEATHERS.
AND I HAVE FOUND PRICRS RESONABLE. I HAD AN EELSKIN BRIEF CASE REPAIRED AND IT WAS ONLY$22.50
I would agree that your best bet would be to have it fixed, but if you want to do it yourself you need to get leather splicing glue. You would probably have to order this from a company like Tandy leather. Any western wear store should have supplies for hte cleaning of exotic leathers.
many thanks for your advice, i will endeavour to find a specialist (not many in the UK however), but at least youve pointed me in the right direction, thankyou THAISAY
