danhux Report post Posted January 2, 2015 Can anyone tell me what this tool is called? I've looked around different online leather tool shops and can't seem to find it. It would be easier if I knew what it was officially called. I like the edge it produces, I just don't know what to call it. Beveler, creaser and "magic edge tool" don't seem to show this tool in any google search. Thanks in advance. Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrstn53 Report post Posted January 2, 2015 I think the official name for the tool is a single line layer creaser, but I'm not a 100% sure. I have a couple that I use occasionally when i want to dress up the edges. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raysouth Report post Posted January 2, 2015 Very nice and interesting tool. Would love to have one in my shop. Always enjoy new and interesting tools, especially if I can create an other then normal look. Let me know if you ever learn where they might be sold. God Bless.

danhux Report post Posted January 2, 2015 I don't know what it's called, but I sure like the edge it makes! Julia I see the edge it makes on all kinds of leather products on "instagram", finally found a picture with tool in it, but the person only types in a Asian language. When I open the page in Chrome and translate the language, the name of the tool isn't there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northmount Report post Posted January 2, 2015 post the link and maybe someone here will be able to help further with defining it or a better translation. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xenophon Report post Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) Hi Dan, i've found it.... through my broken understanding of Cantonese/Mandarin, the user on Instagram stated that he bought it from Taobao (china's equivalent of eBay) Here's a link to what i've searched on TaoBao. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.55.DVjeGw&id=38915871578&ns=1&abbucket=12#detail Here's another version: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.41.DVjeGw&id=42999710192&ns=1&abbucket=12#detail What you would like to type in the search box is: 边线器 Which translates to (Literal translation) 'Side Line Tool' and is pronounced as Bien Sian Ji. I've not bought from TaoBao before but perhaps i may give it a try and see how it goes. Cheers, Frederick Update: 押捻 in the first link is the one you are looking for, it comes in 2.0mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm, 4.0mm and 5.0mm. 押 (Pronounced as "Ya") is to ''PRESS'' down, and as you would know the next would be the double pronged version which is under 溝捻 溝 (Pronounced as "Neah") is to "Pinch". If there's anything else, feel free to ask. Happy crafting! Edited January 11, 2015 by Xenophon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruce johnson Report post Posted January 11, 2015 I missed this thread earlier. I have made these from large round and layer single line creasers that have been worn on the creasing leg. I have done a few other things with old creasers too. I have a few out right now for feedback that have a beadline in the edge and a bevel to the inside of the bead.
