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


How about if he puts something (another strip of leather perhaps) inside the
cut, and glues the faces to the patch, rather than trying to glue edges.

I have found super glue to be crap at gluing anything but skin. Luckily
leather is made from skin. It also does good work in hospitals.
