i was like " wait...i know that knife!" then I checked the channel and i was like "Phillip!". thanks, im going to try this
Haha! Yeah, give it a go đ
New here and also new on learning leather edge. Thank you Sr.
Very welcome
Thanks for the edge tip Phillip. Your channel is what got me interested in accessorizing products with goat leather. It really is quite good where a supple touch is required, and less expensive. I've been using it for liners ever since. More than likely I'll try this out where edges come in less contact first. Interior edges perhaps. ~ đșđ Cheers!
Great to hear Hastur! I agree, goat leather is one of my favourites.
Iâve gotta try this one. Skiving has always been the most challenging for me.
Got for it. I think you'll like it!
Interesting!! Great results too.
Glad you found it helpful đ
It looks pretty nice Philip đ
Thank you Ekon!
Creative thinking, I like it.
Thank you! Cheers Troy
That's a pretty ingenious idea Phill! Personally I dislike edge paint but not quite good enough for turned edge , so I will try this. I'm really surprised no one came up with this before. Perhaps the glues weren't as strong back in the day so the technique would have not worked.
Thanks Misha! Yeah give it a go! I'm sure you will like it.
That looks fantastic. Well done.

Thank you!
Neat idea
Glad you think so đ
Awesomeâ trick bro
Thanks Viziz!
Please
Can you make a video of how to make leather display base for car models
Really cool idea never seen anyone do anything like this before. I bet it would look great if you folded and glued the flaps down assuming your also lining each side hiding the flaps and stitched it down. Useful for certain projects I'm sure.
Some good ideas there!
The concept looks interesting for a low wear area. When do you think you might have more info on the edge paint you were developing?
The edge paint development has come to a halt unfortunately. Too expensive to have produced
@@LeathercraftMasterclass Too expensive?? Bah!! We demand you take our money!!!! In a more serious tone...I think you were on to a innovative 'game changer'. I see the prices leather workers will (and have) paid for tools/products, and think that the world would beat a path to your door for that product despite the price. Please let us know if you ever license the idea to a manufacturer (Seiwa, Fenice, Uniters, et al.)
Basically like wood edge finishing. Haha XD. Looks great tho
Pretty much!
Hehe. Me personally whenever a strap or belt gets the sides damaged, i fine sand it with paper around 2000 grit and then give it a couple of rubs with saddle soap, seems to finish better than any of the products i have. Greetings
Hey, if it works, it works!
Nice idea and no doubt useful - did you try using water based contact eg Ecostick 5019N or Reina or even one of the Japaneses white PVA based adhesives although unsure if any are waterproof?
Rubber based adhesives like the ones you listed didn't work well. I wouldn't use anything that wasn't waterproof personally.
@@LeathercraftMasterclass my apologies I didnât realise water based contact adhesive was rubber based - waterproof PVA it is thenâŠâŠYAY play time!
This is a really smart idea. I'll try that myself.
It look nice ona 3mm edge but i wonder if this work on slimer edges.
By the way what are you using to split leather ? Do you have a industrial splitter ?
I am really considering buying a mechanical splitter but i am no sure of the reliability of it.
Not too sure, I haven't had a chance to try out slimmer edges yet. I use a bell knife skiver to split a strip of skin.
I have a craft tool 806 hand splitter from Franklin.co.uk, under ÂŁ200. Iv had very good results up to 4 inches wide.
I never see that
Seen it before. It is pretty much the same as wood vennering. A lot of wood techniques carry over to leather well.
Oh cool! Can you share where you've seen this done on leather edges before?
Woww I ever see
how do you misuse PVA glue in leather work?
A number of ways. Not mating both parts while the glue is still wet. Using it like a contact adhesive by waiting for it to become touch dry. Not clamping thick pieces together. Not applying to both surfaces on dry or absorbent leathers. Not pre-priming on highly absorbent leathers. Not abrading surfaces on smooth leather to allow for penetration etc etc
@@LeathercraftMasterclass thanks for the extensive response!
My guess is this will fail over time with pulling a wallet in and out of your pocket. Give me a nice burnish any day.
seems like more work. idk
If you're happy slapping one layer of edge paint on and calling it good, I agree. But tell me that after the 4th layer of edge paint with an hour in between for drying time and sanding. Can you tell I don't like edge paint lol?
@@LeathercraftMasterclass ya I'm getting the feeling you don't like edge paint... but it looks so good when done right. Time consuming, I agree.
how are you just finding this out when every single leather product manufacture has been useing this technique for centuries
Could you please provide examples of this exact technique in use by a product manufacturer? By the sounds if it, your list should be extensive.
Well, after giving you 4 days to prove your point, your silence has provided your answer for you. I believe you are confusing this technique with a 'turned edge'.
