A strip of fabric or reinforcing material stitched or glued diagonally across the corners of a book, box, or fabric item to strengthen it.
A compound noun from 'corner' plus 'bind,' combining the location where reinforcement is needed with the action of binding or securing. Common in bookbinding and textile trades.
Antique book collectors know that cornerbind is what separates a book that lasts 500 years from one that falls apart in your hands—it's basically the seatbelt of bookbinding!
