This is a polishing iron used for both leather edges and surfaces. It is especially useful for ironing out small wrinkles in leather (like exotics) and buffing out finishes. You can also use it when doing leather moulding and shaping, instead of using a bone folder to achieve a quicker result.
 
This mallet iron is designed with versatility in mind, thanks to its wide bending range and thoughtfully engineered brass paddle.
Shaping: Its primary function is to shape leather. When heated, the brass paddle softens the leather’s edge, allowing it to gently follow the curvature of the tool. This technique is especially useful for creating smooth, rounded forms, such as curving the base of a bag.
Flattening: Used like a traditional iron, the paddle can also help flatten and smooth hides, easing out folds and imperfections in the grain.
Restoring Exotic Leathers: With gentle circular motions on the flesh side of exotic hides, this tool helps revive curvature and restore the natural shine of delicate scales.
 
The mallet iron can be used directly on the leather or with a heat-resistant Teflon sheet for added protection, depending on the sensitivity of the material.
