I just got some new Palo Santo bevelers as a gift, a set of #0, 1, 1+, and 2. Brand new out of the cork, I tried them out on some scrap 6oz veg tan I have and with all four I get this super weird concave bevel. I’ve tried all manner of pressure and angle, and the only thing that even comes close to a rounded profile is if I hold the tool super steep, like almost gouging steep. I can’t for the life of me figure out what’s wrong here. Another user showed the profile I’m getting but that thread didn’t really give me any answers. Here’s the profile sketch, the bottom of the tool, and the edge that it gives. What’s going on here?
