Leatherworking Awl

Those who enjoy truly customizing their ensembles or simply enjoy leatherworking in general should consider getting tools like the Leatherworking Awl. This awl has a wooden handle and a steel tip. The handle has a tapered shape with a ridge near the awl tip. This makes the handle more ergonomic and easier to grip. Engraved narrow lines adorn the top and bottom of the handle. The handmade tip has a square point for punching into leather. Traditionally, a mallet is hit against the flat end of the handle to push the tip through the leather and into a soft mat. People would also use a soft mat, sometimes made of rubber, to avoid damaging the tips of their tools. The Leatherworking Awl is great for DIY projects or even as a display piece for a historical reenactment.
