In the Saddle
Leather is a natural material that can be used in many ways. And with good reason, as even today it is in a league of its own in terms of durability and feel. So it’s no wonder leather has established a solid position in the hunting weapon sector, too.
Who hasn’t experienced the pleasant feeling of running your fingers around your car’s leather steering wheel? Who cannot appreciate the robustness of hand-made mountain boots or leather trousers that last for generations? So it therefore made sense to make the stocks of hunting weapons out of this elegant material, too. Especially as more and more hunters cannot be without the technical superiority of synthetic stocks but also want a traditional look for their weapon. A whole range of leather types are perfect for this usage. Whether you opt for buffalo, red deer or even ostrich leather, each of their textures and colours provide an extremely comfortable grip and an eminently attractive look. Top-quality English cowhide is used in Blaser Custom Shop’s newest creation. This material would otherwise mainly be used for exclusive saddles in equestrian sports. The fully leather-clad R8 Professional Success “Leather” becomes almost indestructible and extremely weatherproof, making it a coveted bolt action rifle both for the riders among the hunters and for all fans of unusual yet practical hunting weapons.
Innovation + rifle craftsmanship + creativity = R8 300,000 "The Wild Planet."
