Our bone folders are made of a specially engineered non-stick material which offers a number of benefits over bone and regular plastic. Customers tell us that one of the biggest benefits of our bone folder is the non-stick properties, which means that adhesives, inks and paints will not stick to it. If you use a traditional bone folder today, you know its tendency to get worn down, discolored, and stained with age; this leads to messy clean up or worse, contamination of your next project. This is not the case with our bone folder; it will only get smoother and shinier with age while making clean up a snap. In fact, our biggest problem is that our bone folders last so long, once you buy one you will not need another one.
