I am selling my Henry Sauerbier round knife. You can see the HOS marking in the pictures. The knife is in great shape for its age and is a real treat to use. I am moving later this year and am slowly downsizing my tool collection to make the move a bit easier. I am asking $90 + $8 shipping and accept PayPal F&F or Venmo.

First, I don't have any scrap. I bought the exact size I needed as a test for making a wallet with it.
Second, it is veg tan.
I'll give it a try and see what happens.
They are not, but as long as they are regulation size the template will work. I am re-covering them with words, names, tooling, dyeing, etc. to be a keepsake or trophy, not for real use. So the core materials are a little irrelevant.
Does anybody know where I can find baseball cores? I can't find anything on the web. I could always just buy cheap baseballs and re-cover them, but I figured cores would be cheaper.
Thanks,
JC
I don't have any pictures of mine, but I attached a screenshot of the listing I bought it from a few months ago. A dopp kit would be pretty easy. I don't think it would be think enough for a tote.
I am having a creative block. I have a half calf hide of chrome tan and don't know what to do with it. It is about 2.5oz thick. Any suggestions on potential projects?
Is there a specific finish out there that can protect belts from sweat damage? I have made a belt for personal use and used Fiebing's Snow Proof with the idea that it would repel sweat along with water. I would like to use the best protective finish available on future belts as I have a few people interested in purchasing them.
Thanks,

Hey all,
Any tips for making alligator hide belts? A coworker has an alligator hide he would like me to use to make him a belt. I have yet to see the hide, but he says it's pretty thick.
Thanks,

Here is a template, instructions, and video tutorial I have used in the past. Skiving the bottom of the T-slot helps a lot with tightness in my experience.
