I thought using a bone folder from the craft store was fine until a project in Boston

I was working on a leather journal for a client in Boston and my cheap plastic folder left faint marks on the cover. A binder there told me to try a real bone or Teflon one, and it made a huge difference with no scratches. Has anyone else had a tool let them down on a nice piece of leather?

What kind of leather was it?

What kind of leather was it?" Seriously, Holly? It was the cheap, plastic-feeling kind that peels after one rain. The kind you find on a wallet at a gas station. You know, the stuff that cracks if you look at it wrong. I bet you've got a belt made of the same sad material, Holly.
