Description

A set of handheld carving tools to manually carve into leather. Essential leather carving tools include a swivel knife for outlining, various stamps (bevelers, shaders, backgrounders) for texture, and a rawhide/poly mallet for striking. These tools are used on dampened vegetable-tanned leather, allowing for precise, detailed designs. A marble slab provides a solid, stable base for carving, while a strop keeps the knife sharp.

Applications

  • Adding designs to leather boots
  • Adding designs to leather wallet
