This was my dad’s and who knows how old it is because he used to buy a lot of stuff from flea markets. I inherited it 40 years ago and always thought it was leather because it looks like it is rolled up.
I was using it this morning to knock some wood into place and it left a mark because it was used on something that imbedded something hard in the surface.
I decided to sand one surface smooth and WOW!
The stench is still imbedded in my nose and it smelled like something dead or maybe formaldehyde. Now I’m not sure if it is leather and I hope it’s not hazardous to my health.
