Incredible, a must have for hand sewing

This stuff is beautiful and easy to work with! You really can't beat it for the price! Does the same job the ritza tiger thread will do, at a fraction of the cost. If you are on the fence about trying it out, go for it, you will not be disappointed :)
Won't be my go to..

Pretty disappointed with this thread. It splits pretty easily with a 00 harness needle. I wanted to like it, being flat and braided, but it isn't tight.
Good Thread

Best thread I have used so far. It is waxed a little heavy but is a dream to work with. The color is vibrant, thread seems strong and makes stitching easy. Be sure to take a brush to your stitching when you're finished to remove the excess wax.
A little disappounted

It is very pretty thread, but it is not tightly woven and started to fray after a day. Not going to be my tiger thread replacement, but will be good for some crafter level projects.
Good thread

I got a few spools of different colors during the black Friday sale. The colors were very nice and it stitched great. It is heavy on the wax. However, after completing my stitch I ran a lighter over it with a quick pass and man, the color popped! I will be getting more.
Blow dryer tip

I made a chess set and chess board with rhino thread. After sewing I used a blow dryer to melt the wax and the color really came through.
Great Thread for the Price!

So, in comparison to Ritza Tiger Thread there is no comparison in quality. The Tiger thread is tighter, stronger and less likely to split. HOWEVER, at a fraction of the cost of (Ritza is $30 WHOLESALE vs 6.99 for this product!) this is a good alternative. I like to keep multiple colors and if you are on a budget this is a much more realistic price. It is VERY waxy, almost oily which is good and bad. It slides easily through stitch holes but leaves waxy build-up that must be wiped or brushed off. It also makes your hands slippery and a bit harder to sew. All In all I would use this for normal projects and use Ritza on higher quality projects where a tighter thread is needed.

I do not understand the negative reviews. Use the correct size needle and know how to properly hand sew leather. Regular needle for leather stitching. Blunt tip and larger eye. Rhino thread is incredible. Extremely strong and durable. If someone gave you a roll of this thread and told you it was Ritza Tiger thread you would not be able to tell the difference. Do you want to spend $40 a roll for Ritza Tiger thread? Purchase a couple of rolls of Rhino thread and you will not be disappointed. My only complaint the threads were not given the correct color description. List of suggestions— Original name will be first: (1) bright green-Neon Lime Green (2) bright orange-Neon Orange (3) coffee-Vintage Brown (4) dark gray-Vintage Gray (5) hot pink-Raspberry Pink (6) Lake Blue-French Blue (7) light brown-Vintage Caramel (8) magenta-Burgundy (9) pink-Light Baby Pink (10) sea foam-Pale Turquoise (11) turquoise-Sea Foam Green (12) watermelon-Autumn Red
