Great video. Punches are huge timesavers and really help with consistency. I did want to mention I own both sets you linked in the description and they are used for different purposes and are not just different price points. The Owden set is meant for strap ends and has longer straight cutting edges than what you might want for things like wallets, notebook covers, etc. That extra cutting surface can really get in the way for more delicate work.

Thanks - I was going to ask whether you were going to do a corner video and you ready my mind - off to Amazon I go - thanks for the tip on the bevel

Haha they are well worth the couple bucks! Thanks for watching, dude!

Awesome dude! I alway just go around the line with my round knife, or lots of little cuts rocking the round knife back and forth. Haha or sometimes I just pick up the leather if it’s a couple plies and cut it with my carving knife! Great vid man!

Thanks man! I kind of figured that's how you would do it. Keeping it old school! I've actually never even tried a round knife!

Thanks for Watching, Roger. Fancy tools definitely make life easier, but you can definitely get the job done without them.

Out of the set that you bought of corner punches what are the ones that you use the most if you can tell me in mn that would be awesome I'm looking to pick some up I don't really want to buy a full set I rather pick up one or two good quality ones I'm unsure what sizes would be appropriate Please And Thank You.

I’m always stubborn and do the free hand xacto cuts but it always slightly sucks and has to be fixed with sanding. I’ll swallow my pride and buy the punch.

Hahaha I did the same thing before I had a set of punches. Couldn't believe I had waited so long once I got them. They'll change the game for you.

Haha, my simple I'll make a crossbody phone bag from leather not used for jewellery making is ending up as a tool buying session.😁

I have that cheap Amazon set. They don't cut anything thicker then 4oz. And that's after I reground and resharpened them. Maybe you lucked out? But mine are useless.

@BlackFlagLeatherGoods 3 жыл бұрын

That's crazy! Mine definitely needed a strop with some rouge but they are sharp as hell. I do strop them (as with all my cutting tools) right before I use them so maybe I've manged to polish a turd as it were...

What is the size of corner cutter?

@BlackFlagLeatherGoods 3 жыл бұрын

Mine came as a set of about 8 or 10 of them. To be honest, I only use two out of the set and have no idea what size they are. One's big and one's small.
