{"product_id":"leather-sanding-block","title":"Leather Sanding Block","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hardwood block that holds a strip of sandpaper tight and flat, so you can sand a leather edge \u003cstrong\u003estraight and square\u003c\/strong\u003e instead of rounding it over with your fingertips. It is the step between cutting and burnishing that makes the biggest difference to how an edge looks: layers that line up, no saw-tooth from the knife, and a smooth surface ready to bevel and polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach block is made in two parts that meet at a stepped joint. A strip of sandpaper wraps around the block, its ends are trapped in that joint, and a knurled thumbscrew draws the two parts together to lock the paper in place. Changing to a fresh strip, or a finer grit, takes seconds and needs no tools. Choose the shape that suits your work, or keep both on the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #0066cc; border-bottom: 2px solid #0066cc; padding-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 25px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eChoosing a Shape\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; gap: 12px; margin: 20px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa; padding: 14px 15px; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 3px solid #0066cc;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 3px 0;\"\u003e🔺 \u003cstrong\u003eWedge (~90 × 30 × 25 mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 0.95em;\"\u003eA long block that tapers to a narrow nose.
