  • Ron's tools has been around for years and makes some of the finest tools on the market for Leatherwork. Check them out at on their website at ronstools. com They are all hand made and you an feel the quality when you use them.

  • 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. :)

  • This is an awesome video. Very informative and useful. Thanks!

  • thx for the video! Im newly venturing into leatherworks! my dad just gave me a slough of belt leather and stamps! but all the pieces have been polished, so I can't stamp them...is there a way I can get the finish off?

  • @tamishay4life You could try deglazer but I should just buy yourself some new leather.

  • do u use a pricking iron / lacing chisel to punch the stitching holes>?

  • @zusser No, pricking irons are for marking holes not making holes! I drill or punch my holes with an awl.

  • @satansbarber thanks!  great video. i ordered some tools based on this video.

  • 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.

  • hell yeah! Ewan McGregor is into leathercrafting! nice vid, Ewan.

  • very clear and easy to understand

  • i had that hammer i broke my marble with it....

  • 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 man for the info ..... it was very helpful for the start.

  • You can buy it at skinhouse.eu :)

  • what type or name of leather do u use?

  • can the dyes and finishes be used on automotive seats?

  • Excellent video! Even though I feel I am some what experienced, I still feel that I have learned a lot from your videos! Thank you!

  • where did you buy your tools? Some of the best leather working tools are from England and Japan (and old American made ones). Taiwan makes great ones too but too expensive buying new for quality (which is great, just not the best).

  • thank you this really helped!

  • Great video!! you have inspired me. I only hope my projects will eventually turn out as nice as yours.

    Thanks for the videos.

  • EXACTLY, exactly what I needed! I was afraid I was going to be walking in the leather store next week for my first time a little blind, now I have seen the light!

    All hail Satan's Barber!

  • @itsDJR I'm glad it's useful! I've updated the description with a list of stuff as well (it hadn't saved properly and finished uploading while I was asleep!)

  • 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.

  • Great information. Thank you.
