Beau your videos have encouraged me in the last couple of months. I'm walking through a rough season in my marriage. Thank you for making these videos. I really value what you are doing. - Casey

This works on other hides well too. I got great results with a rustic cowhide and the pull-up cowhide.

I wanted to thank you for this video. I used this method just now on a rebind of an LSB hardback in Horween leather. I already loved this rebind but it is now by far my favorite Bible, no comparison. this broken in Horween is so different than any leather on any Bible I have ever owned, nothing comes close. And the leather smell, awesome! It just breaks in so nicely and so uniquely to any other leather I have handled. Thanks for all your video work!!

If God-willing that I could get my hands on this one, the breaking-in would be a great adfitional reward (the great benefit is getting to read His word of course!) of habitually picking up my Bible to read it daily.

I broke in my horween omega like you did and it feels so good to hold & read. No regrets accelerating the process! I haven’t done it to my heritage because it’s a chunky bible and I want to keep it a little stiffer.

Step 1: You have to own a Horween Bible. I love the "Two Dislikes" comment to cancel it out haha. In all seriousness, do you think breaking it in this way removes some of the "personalized" feel of the patina since it's not just from use/your hand?

@BeauTate 2 жыл бұрын

It could, but, breaking in the cover in this manner will be more even and well distributed instead of just sections of the front and back breaking in at the stress points while the rest doesn't. But, that's a good point.

Fantastic video! Unfortunately I did not get an opportunity to purchase a Horween edition before they sold out. I had a decent quality Horween leather phone case a couple of years ago and I loved the patina it developed after much use. Definitely would have liked to use a Horween Bible and break that leather in. Your Omega is coming along nicely I see. I may try your break-in technique on the new black calfskin Cambridge Diadem that I recently picked up.

Very true. But sometimes, for those of us that have dozens of bibles we enjoy using in rotation, breaking in a Horween cover may take months or years and with this process, folks can enjoy the broken in experience much sooner... But yes, thank you for the insight.

Oh c'mon bro .. if you will just unwind n let go of your tense obsession of perfectly immaculate bibles and start using them heavily (not abuse but good solid use) you will rise to a whole other level of loving your bibles.. trust me, been there done that with "perfect" bibles .. once I released myself from that level, wow what freedom to just fully love bibles.. Ok ok, I am saying all this jokingly cause I truly don't mean to run you over .. But it really is true what I'm saying

AHHH - that rolling over looks so destructive. I just purchased a brand new heirloom leather Bible and I want to do the right thing. Are you sure this is the right thing? Thanks. What about the pages and spine break in (like some library book videos demonstrate) ?

Great video - a fun, if slightly scary, watch! lol. I have a 'She Reads Truth' Bible in genuine leather that looks a similar type of leather as it has wrinkled and patina-ed over time. I don't think it is anywhere near the quality as the Horween, so I'm not sure I want to try rolling it...!?????? 🤔😁

This makes me cringe. You’re ripping the glue holding together the cover and liner, separating the cover from the liner by doing this. The wrinkles in particular identify the location of damage. That cover will fall apart in about 2-3 years.

Incorrect. That glue doesn't come apart that easily.

There are videos all about the company called Horween, who are in Chicago, showing their process of tanning hides.This Hoween leather on my bible, Omega, is called Chrome CXL.
