This awl has a diamond-shaped blade for piercing leather and making saddle stitch seams. The hardened steel blade is delivered correctly sharpened. The tool is ready to use for thin and soft leathers. For thick, firm leathers, additional sharpening may be necessary.
The handle is made of wood with 2 flat sides for better grip and to prevent rolling when placed. A rounded metal ring is placed at the end of the handle to protect the leather and prevent it from being marked when the blade comes into contact with it.
