The cheapest way to "Break the edge" is to use a cloth with some warm water draw the leather though it grasping hard a few times and dry it off it gives a pleasing finish to the edge.
Go on have a go matey!!!
That will work, but I don't consider it the best way. I use a beveler to trim the sharp corners and then use a slicker wheel to smoothe the leather after dampening.
If you use cloth, burlap would probably be best.
Heck for $60.00 plus shipping, I'd make belt like the one in the photo!!!
