Sharpen Tools On A Budget | Sharpening and Maintaining Your Leathercraft Tools | Sharpen Edge Tools

Maintaining Tools, Including Sharpening Hand Tool are important when you have a leather craft hobby or business. Handmade Leather Belts, Repairing Handmade Leather Belts, Constructing Leather Belts, The Best Leather To Make Belts, The Tools Needed To Make Leather Belts, Tools For Your Leather Craft Hobby, are all topics that I cover on my channel. Today I will be sharpening a selection of tools that I use daily in my shop. A subscriber reached out, asking how I sharpen my Rons Tool edgers. I figured it would be a great time to show how to sharpen tool without spending a large amount of money on specially sharpening stones. Below are a few vendors that I use on a regular basis. Montana Leathers MTL https://www.montanaleather.com/product/mtl-veg-tan-leather-side/ The liner is Montana Leather Vaqueta in Brown. https://www.montanaleather.com/product/vaqueta-brown-veg-tan-leather/ I used a selection of tools purchased from many of the companies that support my hobby. Somewhat in order that I used the tools. The strap cutter is from Tandy Leather. I have used the strap cutting to cut close to 1,000 leather straps. https://tandyleather.com/products/craftool-strap-cutter I used my Barry King mallet and strap end punches to begin to form the belt. https://www.barrykingtools.com/roundmauls.htm From Weaver Leather I used the heritage economy splitter, stitching chisels, and rotary hole punch. https://www.weaverleathersupply.com/search?q=diamond+stitching+chisel I used Tiger Ritza thread and John James from The BuckleGuy. https://www.buckleguy.com/ritza-25-tiger-thread/ I used leather finishes from Fiebing’s in Milwaukee. I used Neatsfoot oil and TanKote. https://fiebing.com/ The stainless steel buckle and Chicago screws are from Landwerlen Leather in Indianapolis. You can reach Eric Landwerlen at 1 (800) 827-9867 That covers the majority of tools and supplies. If I missed what you are looking for please ask in the comments. Others might be interested as well. I used Weldwood contact adhesive to laminate the two layers of leather. The sewing was completed using Weaver stitching chisels in the 5mm size. I followed with Tiger Ritza thread installed with John James needles. I like the durability of the woven polyester thread. The Tiger Ritza thread is prewaxed making the process of using it very fast. The belt was sealed with TanKote. ​⁠ ​⁠ ​⁠​⁠ https://www.montanaleather.com/ ​⁠ @montanaleathercompany ​⁠ ​⁠​⁠ https://fiebing.com/ ​⁠ @FiebingCompany ​⁠ ​⁠​⁠ https://www.barrykingtools.com/ ​⁠ @barrykingtools2906 Creating Tooled Leather a fun way to really change the appearance of a project. The stamping in the belt was created by Barry King. The axehead stamp is the number two size. If I were to purchase it again I might go with a number 1 to give a bit more room for the stitches when sewing the belt Thanks for your support!
