I actually just tried this the other day. It worked for about 2 min, lol. So no, it definitely won't work :-). They work awesome for other things though!

I use these on harness leather . These hole punches are a must have and work great in conjunction with a leather wheel hole punch.I recommend a kitchen vinyl plastic cutting board as an additional to act as an punch board.----I hope this info helps you

I haven't tried cutting leather, you don't say how thick it is, but I have cut heavy webbing with ease so I think they should work OK.

Yes, I have. Don't use it for leather or suede. It works well with down bblankets, I throw in some tennis balls and it has worked out well. Good luck.

Never tried on leather. It stripped off paint from a plastic moulding; seems to be very stong. Try on a small part first.

Hi Maria- not sure.. I bought it to use on a pair of super soft Coach leather gloves, and this product COMPLETELY RUINED the glove. I had to throw them out, only wore them once :( Hope this helps!

Honestly Derek, I truly don't know. I have never even thought of using it on leather, but personally, I would be fearful of trying it on any good leather.

I don't sew, but I'm guessing that you would not want to use these magnets for a purse closure mechanism for several reasons:1. They are extremely strong. They would demagnetize credit cards, etc., that got close to them2. They are somewhat brittle. I have unintentionally broken two of them. 3. As other reviewers have stated, they are very strong and may tear the fabric.They aren't very expensive. I suggest that you buy some and try several different ways of sewing them into a purse. If they don't do what you need them to, re-gift them as a birthday or Christmas present. They are a lot of fun to play with.

I dunno, try it on a small section. I have used it primarily on motorcycle leathers & boots.

I believe it should work on leather as long as the material isn't too thick or dense. Remember this is for lite material like paper gaskets.

I would not think this would be the best product for leather. There are too many ways to damage the leather with whirling brushes.

I used it on leather golf shoes and a micro fiber pullover, no problem. I have not used it furniture though and would do a small section first if I was you.

Yes you can use this on leather very easily. Remember to avoid from excessive pressure for branding the leather. That prevents from burning a hole into the leather you want to use. Good luck and have fun.

I used them to hold a leather flap closed on my hiking boots and to hold my multi-tool case closed. They work great. I do think they come with a warning about credit cards and electronic equipment proximity though. These are definitely not "craft" magnets.

i would try a spot to see but if it works on leather handbags it should work on leather books.

I have not used it on leather. There is someone in 2011 that says it is safe; however, it doesn't mention leather on the Fission website, just carpet and "all kinds of upholstery". I suggest you contact Fission or try it on a spot no one would see. The website is http://www.fizzionclean.com/
