OWDEN - Adjustable Groover
- Handle made of Brass and Wood.
- 3 size replaceable tips (1.0-1.2-1.5 mm) for different groove widths.
- High quality stainless steel blades
- Can be adjusted for right or left handed users.
How to use:
- Adjust the 'L' shaped guide to the desired distance.
- Make sure blade is centred, and all adjustment knobs are tight.
- Hold the tool like a pencil, and keep the 'L' guide tight on the edge of your leather.
- Place the blade on the surface of the leather, and pull back towards yourself. A small string of leather should come out of the back of the blade.
Tip for beginners
- If you're not sure exactly how far away the groove line should be from your edge, we usually recommend setting the distance from the edge in relation to the thickness of your leather; IE if you have a 1/4" thick piece, your groove will work well 1/4" in from the edge.

Care
Keep it sharp.
A sharp edge cuts cleaner and safer. A little upkeep goes a long way.
-
01
Strop often
A few passes on a leather strop loaded with polishing compound keeps the edge keen between sharpenings.
-
02
Sharpen when it drags
When the blade starts to drag or tear instead of slicing, hone it on a fine sharpening stone, then strop.
-
03
Cut on the right surface
A self-healing cutting mat protects the edge and your table.
-
04
Store it dry and protected
Wipe blades after use and keep edges from knocking against other tools. A light coat of oil helps keep carbon steel from rusting.
