Professional Tools for Working with Leather

Professional tools for working with leather are a must-have for anyone who makes things out of leather. With these tools, you can quickly, well, and efficiently make things out of leather. Edge burnishers are one of the most-used types of devices. Most of these tools are round or curved, and they help smooth the edges of your leather by rubbing against it.


When cutting corners on your projects, a leather corner tool can save you time and effort. With a mallet, hammer, or maul, you can use the sharp, rounded edge of these metal tools to make corners on your leather projects. They come in different shapes, so you can easily cut your leather material to make it look nice or work better. They come in different sizes, so you can find one that works for you.


You can also use them to cut straight edges on your leather pieces, which makes them look better. They also help smooth out the grain of your leather and prepare it for burnishing or border painting.


Wing dividers help measure, mark, and lay out your stitch lines for leatherwork. They are mostly made of heavy steel and come in different sizes to fit other projects. They also have a thumbscrew clamp that lets the wing be locked in place with fine adjustments. You can adjust the clamp to fit the shape of your leather. This makes it easy to measure and mark the leather.


Slot hole punches are metal tools that can make narrow, oval holes in leather. They usually have a sharp blade on one end and a solid piece of steel on the other that can be hit with a hammer, mallet, or maul to make the force that drives the punch through the leather.


When stitching leather, an awl with a diamond-shaped tip is a must-have tool. It comes in different sizes and makes diamond-shaped holes perfect for sewing because threads fit perfectly inside them and don't leave any space around them after sewing, which keeps seam lines from bulging.


The diamond blade also makes the slits that a leather puncher makes bigger. This makes it easier for the lace to go through the leather without pulling or tearing it. It's also a great way to make a hole for a leather clasp because you don't need a unique tool to create an easy, clean, and exact spot.


The Lacing Cutter is a simple but valuable tool for cutting continuous laces from scrap leather. It can cut leather up to 5/64" thick and has six cutting widths. A device that will come in handy in your workshop. This one can be used on straight and curved edges, and the blade can be turned around when it gets dull.


There are a lot of different kinds of this helpful tool. Some have a cutting area that is very useful. Some clamp to a table or work surface and can be changed to fit different leather thicknesses and strip widths. They also have a built-in slitting tool that lets them cut slits along the length with closed ends.


A clicker press is an excellent tool for doing small leather projects if you are a small-scale leather crafter. Some of these are wallets, bracelets, key chains, and sets of coasters.


You can also emboss logos and initials on your items with these tools. They can also be used to cut things like leather and rubber that are soft.


Some presses have a force of 1.5 tons, while others are even bigger. They are made of steel and have a protective coating on the outside. They also have an adjustable arm that makes them easy to use (strength).
