swampbuck Report post Posted January 25, 2013 Oh yeah...the difference is immeasurable! Got the smallest braid basket stamp too. Thrilled with it as well, needless to say. I've been leathercrafting for a little over a year and have now discovered Hermann Oak leather and Barry King tools within the last month. My paycheck is now shaking in its shoes! Really does reaffirm the development of your skills when you switch over to quality leather and tools. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WScott Report post Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Can we see some pictures of them in action?? I bet they are beauties Edited January 26, 2013 by WScott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swampbuck Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Can't really call it an action pic, but here's a little test run I did. They're steeper in angle than the craftools, plus the surface of the checkering is rounded a bit, so it's less chance of leaving individual tool marks.Tighter areas will be easier to handle now with the steep angle.

Hey,where are the little silver flakes that form on and in the leather like I get when I use my craftool bevellers?? (and especially the Craftoolpro modelling spoon). I will probably die of lead poisoning from the darn things What gives Thanks for taking the time and effort to post up a picture Edited January 28, 2013 by WScott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
