I just purchased this slitter, anyone know anything about it?

Blade seems to be for inches.

If anyone has a manual it would be greatly appreciated.

A video on how it works would be joyess!

Thanks

Beautiful tool =)

We used a similar in the shop some time ago but a modern version. You basically turn the screws to make the thickness you desire, you add the leather from the top and pull it through to thin it on the fleshside ( underside ) and tadaa.. thinner leather. That one looks like you turn the handle to feed the leather through though so this will probably make extremely thorough thickness all over the piece you feed through. Make sure the blades are kept razor sharp and i would recommend you get them sharpened by a professional knifesmith. 

Awesome find.
