Aggiebraider Report post Posted November 30, 2011 Yeah if you watch Four Strands of Rawhide, you can see Bill Dorrance using this splitter style, and if I remember correctly he says you have to have your strands really wet since its really just scraping the flesh side rather than cutting material away. Looks good I always enjoy seeing people making their own tools. CW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
