2nd is a groover to create groove for stitching , so that your stitches sit in the groove, won't get damage easily.

3rd is used to cut the strap tail (u shape). Very tempted to get this but its kinda expansive. What I do now is used pen knife to cut but it is not very precise.

Done! Handmade full stitch strap, about 4mm thick. The stitches still not very neat, must practice more.
