lariat Report post Posted May 2, 2014 Was cleaning out one of my boxes of miscellaneous leather "stuff" and came across and empty bottle for Omega Carve-eeze. It was promoted by Tandy as a alternative to plain water for casing leather prior to carving. The person I learned tooling from in the 60s swore by it and I used it or several years until it was discontinued by Tandy. Some told me that it was all in my mind, but I did feel that it made the swivel knife cut a little more smoothly and I felt that that it increased the burnishing effect of tooling — and maybe a little less tendency for the leather to dry out quickly. Does anyone have a comment or know what the chemical makeup was. I'm sure it was probably a low concentration some type of light oil. I do seem to remember it having a slight slick feeling on my fingers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
