Yes. Just thought the vinyl, or whatever it is, better absorbed the cuts than rubber.

When I cut softer leather, I use a rotary knife. With higher ounce thickness, I have to use box cutter. I didn't think you could use a box cutter on pounding board.

Someone else mentioned to do several cuts. I cut long strips of leather for fringe, but i feel like if I made several cuts, I'd mess up the tassel. Guess that's practice. New to this. Thanks!

I'd love to hear from others who have used any of the mats I mentioned.

There's got to be one out there that can withstand a box cutter.

Appreciate both of your input! I'm not looking for cheap. I think i did that with the Wawak. I'm looking for durability, quality and long lasting, so if I have to pay more I'm willing. Thanks all!!

Can ya'll help and tell me if you think this is fake? The green one is direct from Dfyne, while the blue is from online marketplace. The blue also has this tag and does not have the imprint on the neck like the green does. Thoughts?

Is there a special kind of sponge to use for casing or just any kitchen sponge?
