Teradee Report post Posted October 13, 2023 Hi! I have been doing leatherwork as a hobby for a little while now and I have gone through or used lots of edgers (brands, types, sizes, etc). The one thing they had in common (as far as I can tell) is that they are all beginning level tools...said another way, theyre "cheap" Does anyone have a solid recommendation on buying a set of edgers that are top quality, a pleasure to use, and will last me a long long time if kept sharp. What brands of #2, 3, 4 edger would you buy, how much do they cost, and where would you say to find them? (note...i love older, vintage tools and hand tools seem to be the sweet spot for high quality tools that are awesome, so dont shy away from that sort of thing) (note 2...feel free to make the same recommendation for edge creasers, rivet setters "sets", punches, etc.) Thanks for any advice you might have!

bruce johnson Report post Posted October 13, 2023 When you are looking realize that size numbers mean very little from one maker to the next. The older system for the Osbornes and Gomph was each number on edgers was 1/16” of cut. The newer ones (within the last 40 years) don’t correlate with other makers size numbers.
