Members Tugadude Posted February 11, 2022 Members Report Posted February 11, 2022 The bottom line is where there's a will, there's a way. Beautiful leatherwork is obviously possible without all of the fancy gizmos we covet today. This video has inspired me to make the most out of what I have. Quote

Looks like a putty knife. i used a putty knife for a skiver for a long time. If its good steel it will hold an edge. you know a guy could build a very simple cutting tool that works on a fulcrum just like he does it basically longer handle with a blade on it like a paper cutter only smaller, sharper and cooler lol.
