Knife Iron: The Indispensable Tool for Cutting and Welding Synthetic Materials
Larger than our special point irons, the knife iron is a must-have for cutting and welding synthetic straps and closures.
Do you work with non-natural materials? Then the knife iron is a tool you'll quickly adopt. This indispensable heated iron assists leather artisans in cutting and welding synthetic straps or closures.
As much a thread burner as a versatile specific tool, it tackles vinyl, nylon, or imitation leather with great precision and plays a crucial role in modern leather crafting.
Like all our leatherworking irons, it is used with a cork or wooden handle. Be sure to adjust the heat setting on your M3000 or M6000 according to the material. This will ensure a clean, sharp cut and durable welds.
Need advice on how to care for this valuable tool?
- Use a support (spring or wood) whenever you are not using it.
- Clean it regularly with polishing compound or steel wool to remove material and dust residue.
- And if you use several irons, consider our specially designed wooden stand to showcase them.
