Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted October 12, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) Welcome to Leatherworker.net ! Here's a link to a primer on the main page for carving leather. It lists a few of the tools and defines their purpose. However, this is by no means a complete list and you are welcome to post your question threads. Basics to Carving Leather https://leatherworker.net/introcarving.htm Note: I didn't write the guide, just linked it.

Members LeeTy Leathers Posted August 30, 2013 Members Report Posted August 30, 2013 Filigree blade styles should be added to the rather extensive and well written tutorial above. They have a steeper angle then regular angle blades and used predominately for fine decorative cuts. Quote
