Good To Know

Q: How do I maintain the sharpness of this beveler? A: Regular stropping on a leather strop with polishing compound will keep the cutting edge razor sharp. Avoid cutting materials other than leather to prevent dulling.

Q: Can this tool be used on soft, chrome-tanned leather? A: Yes, though it performs best when the leather is firm or slightly dampened to provide resistance against the blade.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
