Tickler - Creaser versus Bone folder?

[King's X]

So I have checking out all of my new catalogs and ebay and I have notice this thing called a "creaser?" Are they releated "job wise" to the bone folder?

How are the same or diffferent?

Where would you use a "Creaser?"

Appreciate it.

OK I guess I'll make a stab at this. It depends on the creaser. Mostly they are used to put a crease on the edge of a strap instead of cutting a line with a swivel knife. Here in the US, a single crease, also known as a tickler, is used all over the place and I can't begin to explain it except, yes it is like a bone folder, only on steroids, because you can get so much more leverage and exert a lot more pressure than with a run of the mill bone folder. I want to say it is as basic as a pencil, but also as complicated and useful as a pencil. You could make a straight line or you could create a work of art with one, although I've never seen it done.

Well, that's quite a load, but maybe its a start,
