Members Cyis Posted April 15, 2017 Members Report Posted April 15, 2017 Since Sheridan leather is gone, some of the Chinese marker made some similar tools as Bob did. It's made from HSS-COBALT and the screw are all get hardened to ensure the performance. The price is $43(with one tip), each tip are charge for $15. If someone is interested in this groover, I could help with ordering it from China.

Members Cyis Posted April 28, 2017 Author Members Report Posted April 28, 2017 Bob is still in business and making tools... Really? I want delete the post and do know you how to order from bob?
Members kanadakeith Posted February 21, 2018 Members Report Posted February 21, 2018 I am interested in this stitch groover, with 1mm bit from china and would much appreciate your help in contacting this seller. I could not find anything on aliexpress at that price. Thanks Keith keithandco@shaw.ca
480volt Posted February 21, 2018 Report Posted February 21, 2018 Why buy a Chinese copy when you can buy directly from Bob? He’s still in business and making tools.
Members Webicons Posted February 22, 2018 Members Report Posted February 22, 2018 Curious, is this a replica of Bob’s design? I would tend to agree to support Bob with a purchase if it’s his design. It’s hard enough to find people making tools for leatherworkers let alone quality tools at that. If not, this tool seems well designed and reasonably priced. Just a note; standard shipping from China typically gets delivered in 20-30+ days. Expedited shipping is an extra 20 bucks (7-10 days) so that may eat up any savings that you may receive.
Members FlatwaterLeatherGuy Posted July 29, 2018 Members Report Posted July 29, 2018 So I am a newbie here, but I found a link that might help people order the Versa Groover directly from Bob at Douglas Saddle Company's Facebook page. Hope this isn't a repost from somewhere and that it helps somebody, especially Bob.

MikeRock Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 Nice to see Bob back in business. When he closed up shop I bought a lifetime supply of awls... None finer.
