Anvil Tools Series: The Swivel Knife - Anvil Customs

This week we'll continue our focus on the leather working tools Anvil uses everyday with the swivel knife. The running theme with all of these tools is a sense of elegance and simplicity. The swivel knife is no different. Functionally this tool is used during the leather tooling process. After the leather is cased (slightly dampened) the leather craftsman uses the swivel knife to cut into the leather. Usually this means cutting deep enough to provide a strong contour line without cutting entirely through the piece of leather.  Using a swivel knife does require a bit of manual dexterity.  The tool consists of three major components. The Saddle is a curved section where the leather craftsman typically rests his index finger. The Body of the swivel knife is attached to the saddle with a bearing to allow it to rotate
