This channel is dedicated to leather work and Greenwood working. Full video every other week, #shorts on Fridays.

Here you will find “5 Tool Tuesday”. Each episode is intended as a crash course on a set of 5 tools that center around leather craft. Future episodes will include carving tools and various other things that I use in my shop. Don’t forget to watch each episode to the end, where I will give you a bonus tool, for free!

Here you will also find "One Tool Wednesday". This is a "deep dive" into one specific tool. Usually something that I have either had for a long time, or that I love, or have been really excited to get! Woodworking and leather tools, reviews etc.

Last but not least you will find #shorts. These are short 30 second to 1 minute videos set to cool music, filmed in vertical format, showing snippets of what I am working on.

Subscribe to the channel and turn on notifications so you don’t miss an episode! New Videos each week.

Love,

Ira

I actually had to replace mine. The first one was stolen. It really irritates me that I can't find a new 14" with a blue handle.

Thank you I was confused. While using it, it felt Ave performed much better as a Push knife and I was starting to believe there was something wrong with my technique.

You buy a tool and it last for 30 years and still going through heavy use is all the advertising a tool needs. I work industrial maintenance and I’ve got tools coming up on that mark. Something last that long and you know you made a good buy.

@random_julian
@random_julian 7 месяцев назад
man with all respect but that rivets means nothing to a forged blade, you never see how much you can beat an axe head in a metal that is not forged??? the biggest issue it is that can pass throu leather but i never saw an axe from Gransfors that had that problem..they are very decent..

I may be wrong but on the Gransfors website they write that a lefthand axe has e right bevel, so your axe is for a right handed carver right? The grinder side is against the wood to prevent digging to deep in the wood. I have the same axe as right handed carver and have a left grinded bevel like you have with chisels. Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪

My question to you is what type of drill bit do you think works the best? I just found your site and am impressed with your various skills. My Dremel Work Station arrived yesterday and I will be setting aside all of my hole punching tools. I am an older gentleman who is visually impaired and I think that this new setup is going to make my leather work much more enjoyable . A new subscriber by the way. Peace.

Why do people keep on calling it a AXE!!! ITS A HATCHET. A axe you swing with two hands, hatchet one hand.
@TheAkashicTraveller
@TheAkashicTraveller 11 месяцев назад
Looks like a dremel and "workstation", a small desktop drill press that fits a dremel essentially, would work well for all of these uses and would be cheaper and take up much less space than a full size drill press. I'd probably go with that or a similar alternative. About the same price and a cheaper bench drill press but more versitile with the downside of not being suitable for tougher materials.
@maverick47
@maverick47 11 месяцев назад
My 'work station' arrived yesterday and I am excited! I am visually impaired, and old and I think this will be the ticket and will eliminate hours of trying to punch out holes. I just found Ira's site and I think I will ask him what type of drill bit would work the best. All the best to you and yours as this holiday season gets underway. Peace.
