Why You’ll Love It: This tool right here is one of my all-time favorites. The Round Gouge is made to cut a clean, rounded channel into the backside of your leather. That groove helps the leather fold smooth and crisp, which is exactly what you want when you’re making boxes, cases, or anything with a tight bend. It’s surprisingly simple but makes a huge difference. Been using mine since 2010 and still reach for it all the time. Key Specs Blade Width: 1/8 inch Handle: Premium hardwood with brass ferrule Edge Type: Rounded Best For Cases, knife sheaths, folios, or anything that needs a clean folded edge Getting accurate 90-degree folds in thicker leather without cracking Making projects look polished from the inside out More About This Product: What makes this gouge so useful is the curve. Unlike flat channelers, this one cuts a rounded groove that lets the leather fold in on itself without bulging or splitting. You can crank out crisp corners and tight folds with a lot less effort. Just drag it across the back where you want your fold, and you’re good to go. Whether you're doing high-end casework or just want cleaner bends, this one punches way above its weight.
