Moderator Art Posted July 6, 2015 Moderator Report Posted July 6, 2015 Also Campbell Randall for skivers. If you can get a refurbished Fortuna top and bottom feed, that would be good also, if not a little more expensive. I would recommend the Fortuna with top and bottom feed and separate drives for the bell knife and the feed. That being said, I have the Cobra NP-10 which is a top and bottom feed with the drive and knife interlocked. It works very well on veg tan and chrome tanned. The bottom feed skivers don't work quite as well on veg tan. Picture of a Top and Bottom feed Fortuna, ancient vintage, still running. Art For heaven's sakes pilgrim, make yourself a strop!
