  1. Cobra AK-20 Leather Strap Cutting Machine For Sale Location: Crestline, California (near San Bernardino east of LA) Asking: $2000 - Pickup Only Contact: LeatherRush@gmail.com 3/4 Horsepower variable speed brush-less electronic servo motor Easily cuts up to 16 ounce leather, or a dozen thinner strips at once The foot pedal on the lockable wheeled stand can be altered for left or right operation Accessories, stand, multi-sized spacers, fingers, used blades, and owners manual are included This was a game changer for my leather strap business when I purchased it new in 2016, but I have seldom used it for the last few years as I am preparing to retire. I have never had any issues with it only needing to replace the rollers, belt, blades, and oil as needed. It is in excellent condition with minimal paint chips, scuffs, or scratches. Fresh blades and new rollers can be obtained from The Leather Machine Co or other suppliers. New Cobra AK-20 machines cost over $2800 plus freight. Thanks for viewing, Mike Rush, Leather Rush

  5. I bought a new Blanchard 10cm plough gauge and find it pushes the strap so hard against the guide that it takes a great effort to cut 8-10 oz veg tan. This is most noticeable with narrow straps, 1 inch or less. The strap has a tendency to ride up on the guide to relieve the pressure as it exits the blade. I understand that the one sided bevel on the knife is designed to keep the strap against the guide but it seems excessive. I sharpened and honed the blade and it is quite sharp by my standards. It easily slices through 12 oz HO veg tan when using the knife freehand without the plough gauge. The bevel on the new knife was a bit rounded and I worked on flattening the bevel (20-25 deg. taper) as well as the flat backside, finishing with a 4000 grit waterstone and stropping. This didn't relieve the pressure. Next I tried shimming the blade a slight amount, moving the point away from the guide. No improvement. Finally, I put a tiny (barely visible) taper on the backside of the blade edge. No change. I'd appreciate suggestions about sharpening and using a plough gauge. Previously I've had good results using a draw gauge and a wooden strap cutter. I bought the plough gauge to cut wider straps consistently, although most of my strap work is in the 3/8 to 1-1/4 inch widths.

  14. I'm considering a strap cutter machine, but wanted to get opinions about the various machines out there. Here are the following machines I'm looking at: Weaver hand operated ($1900, 8" cutting capacity): http://www.weaverleathersupply.com/Catalog/ItemContent.aspx?ItemNumber=25364 Cobra AK-20 ($1995, 14" cutting capacity): http://www.leathermachineco.com/product/cobra-ak-20-leather-strap-cutting-machine/ Artisan AK-22 ($1890, 14" cutting capacity): http://www.artisansew.com/leathercuttingmachinesandclickers.html# Techsew 2020 ($1995, 20" cutting capacity): http://shop.raphaelsewing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=731 Morpan ($2000 rebuilt, 12" cutting capacity): http://landisusa.com/us-en/starp-cutter-morpan.html I'm also curious on why all the pricing is almost identical when some have different cutting capacities, some come on a table, one is hand operated... Any and all information would be great!
  15. Looking for a 4", manual (hand-cranked), strap cutter such as Mast Hardware. Condition unimportant as long as I can repair it. I'm in MA and willing to travel to pick up. Thank you!
  16. I'm about to buy a whole side of 9-10oz veg tanned for a specific project, and I'm going to have to cut at least three long straps from it, 2" or 3" wide each. I'm sure not going to do it with scissors! So what's the best tool for the job? Can I get away with just a sturdy straight edge and my trusty rotary knife? Or should I get a strap cutter? Or, heck, should I just go for broke and get a draw gauge? I've heard there's such a thing as a plow (plough?) gauge that might work, too, but that they don't make them anymore? Let's limit this discussion to tools readily available on the market.
  17. I am essentially giving away these hand tools, caranuba wax, tiger thread, strap cutter, etc. Must take everything pictured. Over $300 total value.You pay $25.00 plus $15.00 shipping and it's yours.
  18. Hey all, I have a heritage draw gauge for sale. It's in great shape, the blade just needs sharpening. Letting it go because I don't use it much and figured someone else might like it! $30 includes US shipping. Ships from CT.
  19. Hi, I am in search of a used small strap cutter that can be hand cranked or motorized. Please reply here or send me an email, colette@purityleathergoods.com. much appreciation!
  20. I hope this is the correct area to post this. I am selling my Cobra AK-20 Strap cutting machine for $1800. I bought it new and it works great. It has 8 cutting blades. I have probably used it a dozen times. I don't really use it anymore and it is taking up room. I am located in Temple, Texas. Please respond to this if you are interested. Thank you and God bless.
  21. Saw this thing on Tandy site and liked it, cut wide straps on a firmly mounted tool. make fringe and lace.... Thanks Jim
  22. Hello all I have a nice little strap cutter for sale, it will do up to a four inch strap no problem. It is directional meaning you can flip a switch and it will cut either way. On the right side is a presser roller, this is very handy for laminating and gluing. The machine comes with all the spacers needed and five blades in great shape. Operates with a foot peddle so you can work hands free. This machine is heavy so if you would like it let me know where you are so I can tell you shipping cost. Im cleaning out the shop and have gotten away from making belts so i just dont need it any more.
  23. I bought this German Plough Gauge on a Norwegian auction site for 37$, when I received it today I could see it was a complete bargain. The lady who sold it had other tools for sale too, however they where all priced to "regular" used tool prices. It is a very well made tool, I had to sharpen up the knife because it had never been used/sharpened before. I did some research and found out it is made by M. Paffrath OH in Remsheid, Germany. The German company also make other leather tools like pliers and punches http://www.paffrath-remscheid.de/index_eng.html . The new price of this tool is more than 300 Euro, I almost feel bad about buying it that cheap. She obviously have not paid that much for it herself. I do not know the story behind it, perhaps she selling the tools for somebody who has past away; all other tools was priced correctly to what they was worth. This plough has an unusual attachment, some kind of material wedge that goes in a slot to the right of the blade. The purpose is either to reduce knife drag or to compress the leather against the material guide. It did not work at all with firm leather, perhaps it is intended for use on soft leather I do not know. Also the knife is set up in an inside angle against the material fence, I do not know if it is made like this intensionally or by mistake. German tool makers seldom makes mistakes, and it cuts leather very well. The knife is exactly like a Blanchard knife and fit their plough as well. I do not like the guides locking screw, it makes the tool look cheap. They should have been using something better than this thin screw, it was also bent when I got it. A other detail i do not like is how the knife is attached, it might be practical but look cheap compared to the other tools. It is clearly inspired by the Blanchard tool, with some improvements it could have been a alternative to it too. This tool is not molded in one piece of brass like the Blanchard is, the ruler and the knife base is made in two parts that is either glued or soldered together. All parts on this tool looks like they are made in a CNC machine, on a Blanchard plough all parts are molded. The German tool is all solid brass an weight 875 grams, when the Blanchard is made lighter. I do believe lighter is better, when these tools mostly is lifted by their knife handles. This reduce the risk of the knife blade to break off in the attachment slot, as they used to do with the older tools heavier frame. The knifes look the same, however the Blanchard has thicker steel. A 15 cm Blanchard plough with one blade costs 319 Euro before tax and this one costs 245. Still I would rate the Blanchard as a better tool for the money. I attach pictures of the tool with and without the wedge. Compared to a 10 cm. Blanchard and compared to a 15 cm Mayer Flamery of the older French pattern. Not much has happened in hundred years, old is still the best. I am interested in knowledge or opinions about the wedge and the tool in general. In advance thanks. Tor
  24. I'm considering a strap cutter machine, but wanted to get opinions about the various machines out there. Here are the following machines I'm looking at: Weaver hand operated ($1900, 8" cutting capacity): http://www.weaverleathersupply.com/Catalog/ItemContent.aspx?ItemNumber=25364 Cobra AK-20 ($1995, 14" cutting capacity): http://www.leathermachineco.com/product/cobra-ak-20-leather-strap-cutting-machine/ Artisan AK-22 ($1890, 14" cutting capacity): http://www.artisansew.com/leathercuttingmachinesandclickers.html# Techsew 2020 ($1995, 20" cutting capacity): http://shop.raphaelsewing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=731 Morpan ($2000 rebuilt, 12" cutting capacity): http://landisusa.com/us-en/starp-cutter-morpan.html I'm also curious on why all the pricing is almost identical when some have different cutting capacities, some come on a table, one is hand operated... Any and all information would be great!
  25. Hi guys, I have Leather Machine Co's Cobra Strap Cutter, which works great, but I'm looking for a machine that would allow me to cut through an entire hide at once and possibly two hides at the same time. Anyone familiar with an industrial machine that could handle this? It would probably need a working width of around 6 feet. Almost all of the strap cutters I've seen appear to be variations on the Cobra. It looks like the only machine that would be able to handle full hides is something like Gerber's Taurus system, but I figured it was worth asking here. Thanks!
