I have no affiliation with the seller. Just trying to figure out how or what it’s used for?? Quote
Members billybopp Posted March 21, 2020 Members Report Posted March 21, 2020 That's a channeling tool used in shoe / boot making. It cuts a slit groove that you can use to sew the sole on and then lay the leather flap back down. The cutter is often angled, but can also be straight as that one is. Sorry that's not a great description, but I can't think of a better way to put it! - Bill Quote
