The leather stitching groover has adjustable arm allows you to make grooves between 2mm to 12mm from the edge of the leather. The tool works to cut a U shaped groove from the leather. The tool should be angled between 30* and 45* degrees to the leather, pulling towards you while applying pressure.

3) Stitching Marking/Grooving Wheel

This straight handled marking wheel comes with 3 wheel cogs to mark equal distances between stitches. Wheel cog sizes include:

• 3mm (~8.3 marks per inch)
• 4mm (~6.3 marks per inch)

4) Japanese Leather Edge Beveler, 3 Sizes

Leather edgers are used to bevel (round) the edges of leather, removing the sharp corners after cutting. These Japanese bevelers are designed with a grooved underside and sharped tip. Hold the tool at a 45* degree angle for smooth cutting. The lower the number the lighter weight leather the edger can bevel.
