What is carving and tooling? How are they done?
Carving and tooling leather is the process by which almost any image can be cut into leather. First an image is chosen and carved into the leather with a special knife. Then a series of tools are used to give the image depth and a 3D appearance. Carved images tend to be superior to embossed images because the image is cut into the leather whereas embossed images are just stamped into the leather.
