Description
EASY-TO-SHARPEN SQUARE GRIP
This edge rest has been specially designed by OKA to be very easy to sharpen!
The blade is delivered very well sharpened but as it is used, it will need to be re-sharpened to guarantee you a consistently effective cut.
We advise you to watch the video to properly sharpen your edge protector with the 1200 grit sanding sheet and the sharpening paste provided.
The edge protector is a tool used to break the edge of the leather in order to make the edges clean and more rounded.
This tool is very easy to use, its steel blade glides over the leather. The handle is made of wood with a steel ring.
OKA is a Japanese manufacturer with a passion for working with leather. It manufactures high quality tools that are pleasant to use and suitable for beginners and experienced alike.
