What kind of leather and glue for a stacked handle? I made a stainless steel burnisher and need to complete my project.

It could. I wouldn't recommend boiling water though. I did that once and ended up with a grotesque looking little black hockey puck, it doesn't take much.

A hot to the touch water would work I think, then dry in. Low oven.

The downside is that they may become brittle when hardened. I'm not sure that's what you will want. 

But you never know until you try it out. Use up some scrap bits and give it a try.

Thanks for the help everyone. It sounds like I just need to seal and burnish the raw edges once the shaped leather handle reaches that stage. I  found this video later today.
