Weaver Leather Gum Tragacanth
Weaver Leather's gum tragacanth, a traditional edge slicking agent that fills rough fibers so undyed edges burnish smooth. A plain, single-purpose bottle from a leather supply house.
Price range: See on Amazon
What we liked
- + Made to fill the rough fiber of a cut edge, which is the job gum tragacanth is used for before slicking with wood or canvas
- + Burnishes to a smooth, rubbed edge, and the listing calls out undyed edges, the classic veg tan belt and strap use
- + Comes from Weaver Leather Supply, an established leathercraft supplier rather than an unbranded import
Trade-offs
- - The listing gives no bottle size or ingredient detail, so compare the price per ounce against the 4 oz bottles in this guide
- - It is the gum only, with no wood slicker or applicator included, so you need a burnishing tool of your own
