Craftool High-Tech Leather Splitter Review and Sharpening

Love your videos! I have a couple of questions for you. Do you still use that splitter and do you have liability insurance in case someone has an accident and tries to sue the holster maker?

price ?

How can a leather worker not use a leather strop to finish honing that blade? It’s sacrilege! Love your holsters a lot.

Have you tried and chrome tanned leathers?

I start with 800 grit wet dry sand paper and add a little 900 grit diamond compound and then I use 5000 grit diamond compound on a flat leather strop glued to a board 2 inches wide. A few strops with that and 3 inch wide leather is fairly easy to cut.

Terrific tutorial but please secure your workbench.

I just got mine. Im havn to pull super hard. Maybe i just have it up too high?

Im about to order one of these...also for cartridge loops....Cant figure out why it costs so much for such a simple thing.
I hate using those little skivers. I always end up skiving my belt ends down paper thin or cuttn them in half all together. Lol

Great video, I do however recommend pulling the blade towards you. You will reach apex much faster while sharpening. Pull only

Beautiful tooling work. glad i ran across your channel. thanks for the sharpening lesson also
