Members rivetandleatherco Posted January 27, 2014 Members Report Posted January 27, 2014 Would a pull style spitter work for making tinner leather for binding edges? Or do i need a crank type? Thanks Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted January 27, 2014 Moderator Report Posted January 27, 2014 It depends on what kind of leather you are making the binding from. A crank splitter pushes the leather into the blade, so the leather has to be pretty firm or it bunches up against the blade. You can pull a little softer leather with a pull-through, but there is a limit as to how soft you can go there too.
