Kemovan Burnishing Tool Set

Three Kemovan ebony burnishers, three edge profiles for slicking leather edges, from wallets to belts.

Why ebony wood?
Ebony isn’t just a symbol of precision. It’s an extremely hard and dense wood. Combined with #Tokonole CL 120 g or #2620-01, it lets you smooth and firm up the leather edge.

• One set, many profiles: No more searching for the right groove. These three burnishers cover everything from burnishing to shaping, bending, and joining edges. You’ll always have the right profile to match your edge thickness. The result? A clean shape with no creasing or distortion.
• Full control: With a solid wood hand tool, pressure and direction are fully under your control. You’ll appreciate this especially for detailed work or thicker leather, where precision is what sets a unique piece apart from mass production.
• Ergonomics that won’t tire you out: These tools feel pleasantly warm in your hand and offer a secure grip. They won’t slip and let you apply exactly the amount of force your leather needs.

Set contents and tool dimensions:

• Thick rounded burnisher: length 140 mm, width 23 mm
• Thin rounded burnisher: length 150 mm, width 8 mm
• Square burnisher: length 60 mm, thickness 30 mm

Note: Keep in mind that precise hand-burnishing is slower and takes more energy than machine solutions. For large batches, a motorized burnisher is more efficient. But for custom work, where a finished edge is your calling card, this set is a good fit. (Since this is natural ebony wood, each piece is unique and its grain may vary slightly.)
