These tools I would like to introduce you are very essential for leather craft.

玉ネン(Da-ma-nen) Tu-ru-ku-bi : Cuved head typeネジネン(Ne-ji-nen) : Adjustable screw Type
These three tools are very common in Japanese leather craft industry.
They have been around in Japan for a very long time.
you may never seen before these tools. so I would like to show you.
beware, I am left-handed, so these tools are all made for left handed person.
There are also right handed options too.
This is 玉ネン(Da-ma-nen) Hi-ra-ku-bi - Flat head type
This is for right AND left hand use.
it is good for making straight lines.
3 and 4 mm is set for the gap from the edge of the leather. and yes, that's the only option.
it is the most commonly used size.
玉ネン(Da-ma-nen) Tu-ru-ku-bi : Cuved head type
This is for left hand use. you can see there is a curve on the tip so that you can easily make curve lines
in tight spots.
I believe Tu-ru-ku-bi means "head of a bird" which is the shape of the tip does look like a shaped of bird's head.
3 and 4 mm is set for the gap from the edge of the leather. and yes, that's the only option.
it is the most commonly used size.
ネジネン(Ne-ji-nen) : Adjustable screw Type
is you may seen this from more often.
it resembles the type in western world. which is from dixon or blanchard etc.
you can adjust the gap of the two steel so that you can make your choice of line from the edge of the leather.
