I was visiting a tandy leather store and during the course of conversation a topic came up about sharpening a swivel knife. The store manager suggested a green polishing compound which would sharpening easier. Wow! i was amazed at the way this compound worked. It only took a little bit of compound to sharpen.the swivel knife. I highly recommend the green polishing compound to anyone sharpening tools even beginners.I use green polish compound for all my sharpening.

A sharp tool is a safe tool. I usually set aside 1 day a month for sharpening all my cutting tools, both leather and woodworking, that I'm comfortable tackling. Sharper tool means less force and less force means less chance of losing control due to excess pressure which could lead to a nice little reminder as to why we keep sharp tools, lol.

For the inside of the half round glue some leather to a dowel and make a round strop. A leather lace can be tied between two points and used on the inside edge of the English point. Sometimes even without compound it is enough to get the burs off and make cutting better.

Thank you so much. I am new at leather crafting. I need to sharpen my curved edge cutter (largest size half circle) because I found out too late I used it wrong! After I kept trying to use it to make an easy key ring, the leather would not cut clear through. So I kept hitting it harder with a regular metal hammer. It was THEN that I read to never use a metal hammer because it will dull the beveled edge. I had no idea what to do. My set was brand new and I couldn't just buy new ones. So I need to get a strop? And that will basically work on sharpening most cutting tools? Like I said, I'm a beginner and rely completely on tutorials. ANY advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you again for sharing this information!

No worries over being a beginner! That can be the most fun and please feel free to ask anything! On this one I’m a little confused.

I'd LOVE to some day to get that large half circle round knife to make swirls and flowers and leaves, etc... That will be at a later time. But it's on my list wish!!!! A round end punch for a strap is what I ruined.😥. I got a set of 8 sizes . This was the largest one. I think (I do not have them with me right now) it was maybe the size of a 2" half circle? Does that sound right? I was wanting to also use it to try to cut the end for a wide wrist cuff. I hope that explains it better?
@WeaverLeatherSupply5 жыл бұрын
I am most happy to reply to beginners! I hope you have a great time with it! On the End Punch, you can sharpen that with a small “Rat Tail” file on the inside and a strop on the outside. Also, if it’s too rough to sharpen with the file/strop I would say find a metal shop (they’re everywhere, always friendly and will grind it out for you cheaply) or a friend with a bench grinder to smooth it out then jump over to the strop. If you use a good poly cutting board under it you’ll really notice a difference in the ease with which it punches and the edge will stay sharp. Use the cutting board for cutting and punching all of your “drive” tools (Round End, English Point, Oblong, Round hole, Chisels…). And yes, use a Poly or Rawhide mallet and you’ll have no issues with your tools wearing. See if this helps?

Hi Andrew, If it just needs polished, we have a customer who uses a green rouge and a small polishing wheel once a month on his splitter blade and has never had to sharpen it so you could try that. If it's dull enough that it needs to be sharpened, my only advice on this one is to have it professionally sharpened. That sounds like a major deal but it really isn’t. There are all kinds of companies, like printers, that use industrial blades. It’s not terribly expensive and you’ll be amazed at the edge they can put on your blade….I certainly was!

I've seen some video clips where they say you should dampen leather before using an edge beveller or skiving tool, however they say you should not do than and rather use very dry leather when using a stitching grooving tool.

one thing to note for people, and i am sure its already been commented on(though i did not see it) is that white compound is meant for precious metals like gold silver platinum. Those are all soft metals. The white compound is not made for steel or metal, and does really nothing at all to harder metals. dont waste your time with the white compound, just use green for everyday useage and if you need a bit more, then use the red. but NEVER white. you will just be sitting there for 3 times longer, and not even making a difference to the tool.

Polishing and sharpening is a complex field with lots of knowledge. In the USA Brownells sell a variety of polishing wheels, compounds and I think ribber bobbins with various grades of grot incorporated into the rubber for use on a Dremel type tool. Also one can buy needle files of small size with diamond grit surfaces which are hard enough to cut back any surface to shape. Jewellers French polish is normally a very fine grade of grit in a waxy matrix. It us normally reddy brown and I have also thought that it is red rust particles dropped out of a chemical mix. India stones are also used by wood turners fir all the sorts of curved chisels and gouges and can be bought similar to a pencil size of tapered to a point for sharpening curves. Another trick alluded to above us to use emery paper either flat or stuck on a piece of shaped wood. Spray mount for photographs can be used as the paper can be replaced when worn. If the wood is round and small it could be put in the chuck of a drill. Laying a piece of 600 emery on a flat surface such as a marble floor tile gives and excellent abrasive surface. Papers if even finer grits can be purchased way down to jewellers rouge approx. 3000 grit which will give a mirror like surface. This is what I would used to finsih a 14 inch blade. Initially I would run along it with a diamond diafold type sharpener in 400 and 600 grit, then 1000 grit paper and then 3000 jewellers rouge paper. These fine papers are used on car body painting and will be in a good shop selling car stuff. Another interesting tool is a ‘tack remover’ , very cheap and very similar to an edger, just needs a bit of round diamond file

Chuck, I’m glad you made a video on sharpening. If you don’t have sharp tools, you’re not going anywhere in crafts! I come from a background of wood working where every tool in my shop must be sharp. The same goes for just about every craft out there. Yes a sharp blade is very dangerous but a dull blade is as dangerous or more dangerous! In my wood work shop, I don’t allow anyone in there while I’m working. NO DISTRACTIONS! Means you walk out with all your fingers and hands where they are supposed to be! The same goes for all crafts where sharp edge tools are used. I noticed that you frequently have your cats visiting you in your shop. Not a good idea when working with sharp tools!

@WeaverLeatherSupply5 жыл бұрын
There’s a number of ways to go depending on how much you want to raise it, but, the best is a veg-tan. It comes in multiple weights so you can raise to your liking, it glues well, has excellent strength (little if any stretching so if the exterior wants to stretch the veg will hold it) and is very durable. I would bevel the edges, front side only, so the exterior leather won’t have a hard corner which would take heavy wear. A less expensive route, is our Saddle Seating. Durable and ¼” thick. Also, suede makes a good filler. Also less expensive, glues well, durable. See if any of these are a good solution?

The knife sharpener arrived quickly and in good condition kzbin.infoUgkxDcr-y2Pf6xdnrFHrSP7dl9kpKaCozcSQ I was happy to see that that packaging was easy to open. I did not need a chain saw to get into the package.The sharpener was smaller than I expected but that might turn out to be and advantage because it will be much easier to store than my old sharpener. The instructions on the package were simple and concise; perfectly adequate for this product. I liked that the two slots were labeled with "Course" and "Fine" on both sides of the sharpener. Now, how does it work? It's fantastic. A few swipes of the knife through the two slots and the knife was sharper than when it was new. The rubber surface on the bottom held it in place while sharpening. I thought the small size might be a problem but it was not a problem at all. In fact, I prefer it to the larger sharpeners I have used in the past. On top of that, the small size makes it very easy to store.I love it and highly recommend it.
