In this lecture, Nigel will be advising you on how to decide what kind of knives are a good choice for the tasks of template making and cutting leather. All knives are not equal.

We then begin to go into detail about cutting techniques. It is widely believed that using the correct cutting technique is the one technique that will save you the most amount of money when it comes to wasted leather due to poor cutting.
