American Straight needle stitcher

Good morning

I have the opportunity to buy an American Straight Needle stitcher form a cobbler in town. I thought it would be a good idea to use to make knife sheaths with since I have broken my wrist and hand stitching is out of the question for a few weeks. However, I don't know anything about these machines. Can anyone out there tell me what to look for? What kind of price is reasonable? He shot me a price of $600, but I figure he will negotiate some. Any info would be great.

Thanks Joe

You might try asking over on Leatherworker.net. (If you haven't checked it out, it's a pretty cool forum.)

Did a quick search and see one for sale on ebay for $350, but you have to pick it up in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/American-Str...-/350828284531)
