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 think it would, but I wouldn't use it on a Damascus steel knife without talking to a couple of knife specialists or custom knife makers. My suspicion is that there is a more appropriate material for that application. I have one Damascus steel knife which I've owned for about 20 years and I use it sometimes when hunting. I have never given it any special treatment, but I do keep it clean. It has never shown any signs of oxidation.

I wouldn't use this on car leather. The bristles are hard plastic. I suspect this would ruin the leather.

I wouldn't try it....if you elect to, use it in a discrete place.....I used it for leather and would purchase it again....good luck!!!

Yes. The spine of the knife is rough from the stamping procedure used to make it. Run a file down the spine a few times to help square it up and give the spine sharper corners. It'll then work great.

It should work well on leather. The edges are very sharp, so make sure you have a soft backing plate. Plywood tends to dull them, so I'd go with some pine or something like that.

I would NOT use this for leather apparel like jackets, bags, or shoes. Get Leather Honey (or Honey Leather) instead. This feels kinda slippery after application

I've never used it on leather. I would try it in a hidden area first. Works well on washable surfaces and fabrics. Sorry I couldn't be of more help

Yes, I don't see why not, it protects your hand well from any slips with the knife. I used it when I filleted the Mother-in - Law. Joke !

Hi, I bought this to use as a leather strop for sharpening knives; I glued it to a piece of wood w/ contact cement, and it works great for that purpose. I did a little leather work many years ago, and it seems like this leather could be sewn with leatherwork needles - it's not that thick, but the thickness does vary throughout the piece I have. One side is finished & the other side is unfinished.

yes,but remember, only over low heat such as your simmer setting. Higher heat settings discolor the metal and could potentially char the wood handle.

Hello, I used it on my sterling silver childhood knife, fork and spoon - no problem. Hope it helps.

Yes, but it depends on the knife. This sharpener is great for honing inexpensive blades, but I wouldn't use it on Wusthof, Global or Henckels knives. The edge you get from the Chef's Choice is very sharp, but not like a razor. It's more like micro serrated. I used it to sharpen my cheap set of KitchenAid blades. My Chroma knives I sharpen by hand with a whetstone. The stropping wheel can be used on any knife and it works well.

Don't know. It is sold to use on fabric. Can not use on leather. It is rough so I would not use it on an animal.

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.

Never tried it on leather. My suggestion is to try a little bit on a place that is not noticeable like the underside. It will probably be fine.
