Material Selection The cowhide leather used by "Cutting Line" is all A-grade, high-fat vegetable-tanned leather sourced from Italy. As it is a natural material, and the tannery uses vegetable tanning methods that cause minimal damage to the leather, minor "scars," "wrinkles," and "veins" are unavoidable on the surface. We strive to avoid these areas during the cutting process, or place them on less visible or non-load-bearing parts of the product. 2. Pure Hand Stitching We do not use sewing machines to craft our products; all items are meticulously hand-stitched. Before stitching, special diamond chisels are used to punch precise holes in the leather, creating the beautiful, wavy stitch lines that distinguish our work from machine-sewn goods. While this significantly increases production time, it is a crucial step where leather artisans imbue each piece with soul and a warm, tactile feel. 3. Hand-Burnished Edges Before a piece is finished, the edges are carefully burnished. Our goal is to achieve smooth, rounded, and natural-looking edges. "Cutting Line" employs a unique edge-finishing method. First, sandpaper is used to repeatedly smooth any sharp edges. Then, an edge sealant is applied to create a flat surface, repeated 2-3 times. Finally, a layer of edge wax is applied and burnished with a polishing tool until the edges achieve a smooth finish. 4. Hand-Dyed Leather For our hand-dyed products, "Cutting Line" currently uses imported Fiebing's leather alcohol dyes from the United States. To achieve a uniform and natural coloration, we begin by slightly dampening the leather surface. Then, using a sponge, we apply the dye layer by layer, gradually deepening the shade until the desired color is achieved. Once dry, a color-fixative is applied to enhance colorfastness. We also apply water to the leather surface to remove any dust and further even out the color. As each piece is dyed by hand, subtle variations in color will occur between products, making every bag unique.
