Super glue sticks leather very effectively, but you get a hard, shiney patch
which you can't do anything about.

a
use rather evostik (or punture repair solution) on a bit of scrap leather
inserted behind the cut.


Press it all down and clean off the residue with finger rubbing and/or a
decent aggressive solvent. Beware though.If te surface is polished it may
remove all the wax..
