Leather straps - Leather laces
Leather straps are used as jewellery or as driving belts. Leather straps and laces can be cut in very different ways (see videos below). They can be cut round or cut into strips along a straight line. The round cutting gives a very long strap. Leather straps are therefore also sold in length. Cut with a simple knife the straps have an angular shape. With special machines, the square edges of the straps are rounded and are then round straps.
