I like the hair band idea to secure the dauber to the proper container. An irritating problem solved by a simple solution! Thanks for the PRO tip!
i used this vid to make a shopping list. i want you to know how much i appreciate you and your excellent work. thank you.
Easily the most useful tutorial I've come across -- you get straight to the point with no useless information and accompany each tool with a practical demonstration in it's use. I wish more CZcamsrs would follow your lead.

Ian, just wanted to say your channel is awesome. The knowledge you put out there is priceless you can't buy it anywhere. I greatly appreciate people like you that have a passion for what they do and are willing to pass it on.
I would like to extend a thanks for your time in explaining whats needed. I just purchased a 27sq foot piece of 10 to 12 oz leather. I will be making custom holsters for handguns, magazine pouches, knife sheaths, and belts. The tool sets are very expensive. Just needed a basic set to start with. You have done a fantastic job of showing this.
Ian, you have the best instructional leather working videos on CZcams. I am brand new to all of this, and have tried watching some of the videos on the Tandy Leather channel. After two or three minutes, I am in serious need of a wet rag to wipe the blood out of my eyes. George Hurst has no business in front of a camera. Thank you for uploading these. For a newbie like me, you make things easy to understand and entertaining. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so very much, not only for the information about purchasing essential tools but too their uses. Much appreciated. Clear and well put together.
Thank you! I'm stuffing a crash course on leather work. Your videos have been incredibly helpful.
Excellent, thanks Ian! I'm going to be mostly watching your videos over the next couple of days, they're the best videos I've seen for someone like me, and I can't do much else anyway as I went and broke my leg the other week.
The information is perfect for me, I've become obsessed with leather working after recosntructing a belt and an old biker waistcoat. I've got some tools but now I know what I actually do need! Yay!
Have a good day!
Brilliant video! simple, straight forward and exactly what i needed as i can now edge my projects better. Thanks
Thank you! I've been trying to come up with a basic list of tools and this is a great help.
Excellent video! Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm doing a rather different kind of leather crafting and have been rather mystified by some of the"traditional" items used, so this has been great!
Very helpful video! I'm starting a few small leather projects and this is a great beginner's guide to the tools I'm going to need.
Great video. Been looking at starting working leather for a wee while. This has given me a good starting list for tools. Thanks.
Just commenting on your very impressive channel overall. We're a massive fan of your dedicated incredible handcraftsmanship and your tutorials are just really impressive. Keep it up Ian!
Thank you for a very clear and informative video. It answered lots of my questions.
Hey Ian you are the man; thanks again for the knowledge given to the wider world.
Thanks for cutting through the confusion and setting up a very useful and basic shopping list for those of us that want to get started.
Mr. Atkinson,
Thank you for this very informative video. It helped me to build my toolbox as I set out to establish a leatherworking business. Very thorough stuff.
this is an old video, please see description for a more up to date one
FINALLY! I know my way around a work-shop, but leather is a mystery to me. Thanks for this excellent first-look at what I need to get started. Much appreciated.
Excellent vid. thanks for doing this.
absolutely love your videos! I'm new to this hobby and your explanations are tremendously helpful. You have already saved me so much time and money and I haven't spent a dollar yet. Thank you....my wife thanks you!! lol
Wonderful video and just what I was looking for. I am about to embark on making deck pouches for my son's birthday next month. He plays Magic The Gathering and wanted some pouches to attach to his belt instead of lugging around boxes full of cards. I am new to leather working and your video gave me a great start on gathering together the various tools I will need. Your explanations are extremely clear and now I am more confident about how to do my project. Many thanks again for the video. :)
Excelent. I have done odds and pieces of leather work for years but have never had proper tools. Thank you for this video.
Great tutorial video for those interested in working with leather. Thanks so much!!!!!!!
Great video, thanks for the great informative info. Much appreciated. Been wanting to start in leathercrafting for a few years now. It's just so expensive though..guess .have to get the tools one at a time
Great video, really informative. Thank you for uploading this!
Great overview for a beginner. Thank you so much!
I was planning to make a knife sheath but didn't realize how many tools I'd need to do a good job of it. Thank you Ian for opening my eyes.
Excellent guide to a basic tool set.
Excellent vid. this has started me off. thanks Ian, Ive sent a donation.

@zusser No, pricking irons are for marking holes not making holes! I drill or punch my holes with an awl.
Excellent upload, thanks
very clear and easy to understand
Just what I was looking for, thank you!
kinda wish I had seen this last month. it's extremely helpful
Brilliant video mate, thank you for taking the time to make it :) just what i was looking for! Subbed :) ATB Ant
Awesome. Would be great to also have a simple tutorial on the successive steps to work a simple project.
my channel is full of tutorials.
Ian, I know you did this 5years ago, but I saw it for the first time today.. thank you for doing this. I am going to make a go of Leather working, so your channel will be invaluable to me. you may get sick of me asking questions and bothering you with silly questions.just a fore warning
Very helpful. Thanks Ian.
Great video mate, really helpful info
Ian you should make all the tools here with Amazon affiliate links for each. Or making a buying list on Amazon with your affiliate link for people who have nothing and want to start. Excellent channel buddy.
Maybe he doesn't that he can make some extra money with it.
thanks for the vid, really helped me get started.
many thanks for sharing this information
This vid is phenomenal. You made sure to give time between each item, so I could look up the best deals on eBay! Thanks!
Great primer mate, cheers!
Thank you! you helped me so much. I ordered tools off of Amazon they did not come with the names or identification of each tool so I have had look for each name and what purpose they serve. Not fun.
Fantastic video as alway! I have pretty much 99% of those tools, but still great to know if i missed anything that might be essential.
Very nice, you are very generous.
Great videos keep up the good work...What type of sewing machine should i use for thick belts and dog collars
Very nice information!
THanks for the nice informative video!
Great information. Thank you.
thank you very much for the tips.
great video mate. cheers
If the cost of traditional leather knives is a bit high, you can stick with your utility cutters but improve their performance dramatically by sharpening them. It is easy with 1200 grit wet & dry abrasive paper on a sufrace that has a little give like neck or belly leather. Drag it over the abrasive at a low angle until the shoulder is gone then remove the paper and strop on the leather with a little metal polish like autosol or driglo. The cost is very small for a great edge. Regards
Thanks for uploading this video! I believe it would be perfect if you mention the importance of the pad under all these tools
+胡古哥 it's the first thing in the video.
Very handy - thank you!
Thank you for the vid and the list :)
Any etsy shop to advise for buying thoses tools?
Best
Hey Ian, great video! What size diamond awl are you displaying in this video?
Ty for the info, this will be my first leather work, I make knives for clients I usually buy the sheaths but trying to save some cash but ty again...
hello ian ! thanks for making this channel just discovered this channel today. I just wanted to ask some question about the most basic or essential tools that i need to buy. Because i am still in college so i need to keep tight of my money.
hi, i just ordered my first kit to give a try to tooling leather. one information i cant find is if its possible to have a leather thet i can stamp and get to be flexible like a jacket ?
Hello, I am watching many of your videos as I am starting to work the leather, I have some qkons, FIrst of all in some of yur videos you refer to books or courses you made and I would lie to know their price and where I can find them , they aren't on yur site or I looked in the wrong place :) Also I am not seeing here some of the stitches tools you use in al of your videos is it becausethis one is older? Can they be used also from beginners (actually they seem to make things easier maybeit's just an impression)? I thank you for these videos and for all the infos you give Ireally hope you can answer me :)
Great Job..Thanks.
Hi Ian, thanks for the great videos!
How would you compare the V-gouge you are using to the handle-fitted version? (Tandy 31811-00)
Hello! :) Thanks for the video. I've been looking at a lot of vids, and they use marble, quarts, poundo board, what your using. Which do you recommend is best? So many to choose from.
Very handy video thank you. Where do you buy most of your tools and supplies from? Main one I have found is Tandy. are there any more international companies? (I'm in Australia)
Youve made one of the best videos ive seen with info about what to get!! im just starting out leather making and im trying to find out the best tools to start out with before i do anything, are there specific brands or companies that make better long lasting quality tools? or are they mostly all the same?
thank you very much for your help, I'll see and I'll let you know
thank you this really helped!
could you tell me where I could purchase the small silver folding blade carving knife? Thank you for your video!
Thanks Ian
I don't know, I just use a Tandy poly mallet. I think the weight it more important for tooling where you're going to be holding up a maul and using it repeatedly for long periods of time which isn't really a beginners thing. For punching out holes or setting rivits as long as the mallet gets the job done I wouldn't worry too much about the weight.
Any chance of a video showing how to sharpen the various tools you use? There are numerous sharpening vids on youtube but I think that your style of putting things across would be of benefit.
Thank you Ian. Mike UK
you're awesome! so helpful!
You might also find a local saddlemaker of you have one and ask him for any scrap leather you have to practice on. Much easier on the billfold!
THX for the vid bro.
greeatings from austria :)
Hi Sam, there are links to shops on my website, you won't go far wrong with The Identity Store they're great! There aren't any shops local but you can buy over t'Internets :)
thanks for this video
Your video is very helpful! i am just starting out with leather work but before i get anything i wanna learn what i can and what tools i need, is there any specific brands or companies that are the best? or tools that are long lasting and good quality? or are most stores going to be the same in their supplies?
I want to buy. But, unfortunately I can't find the shop is sale these.
You're Awesome! thank you!
Thanks, very usefull.
hi thanks for the info im not keen on leather finishers is there a good solution for waterproofing leather with out a glossy or acrylic finish, also i have my awl blade and handle one end is diamond and a little blunt and the other is diamond sharp bladed wich end goes into the awl handle?? cheers ;)
I can't find it, what is that steel template you have shown before that is to make circles?
Hey Ian , i had a question. Is it possible to stamp a design on a wallet or bag or anything for that matter thats already made? Like if i buy a wallet or belt on the store can i still stamp a design on it?
Sorry please ignore my previous message, i googled it and found the answer. The keen beveler rounds the edge. So would you recommend buying a keen edge or straight edge beveler if you were buying tools for the first time? or do i need to buy one of each? Which one do you use more often?
I was hoping to find what tool you use to finish your stitching. It looks like either a butane lighter or some kind of pocket heat lamp. could you enlighten me, please? your work is fabulous!
Hi, firstly compliments on a great and info filled video. I have a quick question.I need to get a leather portfolio for my photography degree and I want to make it myself. I have seen this type of portfolio plastic sandwich website for portfolios and its what I want to base it on. The leather needs to be 3mm thick (ish) brown and very clean from scratches and marks etc. Can you recommend any where in the Uk I can buy this type of leather or hides??
Kind regards
Joe
