This edge beveller is a hand tool used for controlled removal of material along leather edges prior to burnishing or edge painting. It is designed to produce consistent, repeatable bevels by removing a narrow strip of leather from the edge with minimal pressure.
The blade is made from high-speed steel (HSS), offering good edge retention and durability with regular stropping or sharpening. The cutting profile is intended for controlled, even material removal rather than aggressive cutting, allowing better accuracy on both straight edges and curves.
The handle is turned from solid wood and shaped to provide a stable grip during extended use. A metal ferrule reinforces the blade joint and improves long-term durability.
This tool is suitable for routine leathercraft applications where consistent edge preparation is required.
