Bench Top Edge Beveler
This bench mounted edge beveler will edge two sides of leather strap with one pass. The resharpenable blades have six cutting positions and then can be switched side to side for 6 more edges to enable long lasting beveling.
Leather Worker Bench Anvil
This bench anvil weighs 11 pounds so it is solid on your bench. It has dimples and holes for setting hardware and also for knocking out rivets and other fasteners. The top has been finished and edges have been buffed and the bird to avoid marking your leather projects.
Nail Cup
This is an eight section revolving tray commonly called a nail cup. They are useful for holding tacks, rivets, and other small hardware on your bench.
Crown Splitter
Crown splitters are used to make a slit in a strap. They have a sharp vertical blade to cut the slit and adjustable guides on either side. They are useful in some kinds of English bridle making. They also are handy for making mystery braid bracelets and reins. I have had people by these two strip out wider straps into saddle strings or handles.
Loop Irons
These are 12 inch long steel loop Irons. They are used to form loops into a rectangular shape for easier buckling. I also carry loop sticks made of Delrin. The Delrin sticks will not mark damp leather like the metal ones can. The advantage of the metal ones is that they can be tacked and stapled against without damage. I've been asked to source the metal loop irons to have that option. I have polished and deburred the edges on these to avoid damage to your leather. They are available in a set from 1/2 through 1-1/2 inch. There are singles available in 1-3/4 inch and 2 inch as well. These are all size marked and have a hole for hanging.

Adjustable Edge Single Line Creaser
These edge creasers have one tip longer for edge creasing. These creasers have been modified by me. Originally they come with the tips shaped to make a wide flat crease. I slow grind the tips to a narrower profile for a more crisp and thinner crease line and then polish them for a smooth action and better burnish effect. I also round over the squared edges on the handles for a more comfortable feel in the hand. There are a stocked item.
Adjustable Creaser
This adjustable creaser has been modified so both tips are the same length and can be used to make parallel lines anywhere on the leather up to 5/16 inch wide. They are a stocked item.
