How durable is Fish Skin Leather?

Fish skin leather is surprisingly durable and strong.

Finished, tanned fish skin leather is a material quite similar to tanned cowhide or sheepskin. The fish skin leather is tanned and curried as a durable and wear-resistant leather that can be used like any other leather.

Fish scales are removed in tanning. The skin pockets remaining on the skin of, for example, Baltic and Atlantic salmon, form a recognizable pattern on the leather. Burbot skin has a very varied and beautiful texture with very small scales, which do not completely cover the leather.
