To help me with my paracord weaving hobby, I needed a tool with a very pointed and slender end. There are times when you may need to loosen up a knot in order to undo it or tighten weaves. I can easily fit it in my tool pouch and it is the right size for the job at hand. There is only one problem I find that it is made extremely sharp, to the point where it could easily puncture materials to thread. In the same way that leather feels. In either case, I was the victim of accident. As a result, it cut through the paracord material instead of between the different loops, which made it too sharp. Rather than using a file to blunt it, I put fine sand paper on a flat surface and then rounded It is a great value for the price and I keep it in its sleeve all the time. I highly recommend it as it has a nice wooden handle and is very handy.
In addition to leather sewing and patch collecting, the cordage splicing tool is well made and will be well suited for my use. My interest in this tool sprang from seeing similar tools being used for splicing AMSteel. In addition to the tools I already have, I have also made others that work okay but are either not tapered or not smooth enough for my purposes. The tip of this tool narrows a lot as it moves towards the handle, and it is a smooth metal for its The only thing I don't like about it is that it's smaller and shorter than I had It can almost be hidden completely in the palm of my hand. You should be aware of this since it appears to be much larger when craftsmen use it in Close Up Videos on YouTube.
Since the point is very sharp, it is recommended to keep the plastic sheath and the cute card stock box within. From other awls I have made, I have already patched a hole in my kit bag. In general, I recommend this tool to people who do hobbies that I do. At least for now, I see it as a tool I will use for a long time.
My purpose for purchasing this was for splicing Dyneema cord into various hammock camping items (such as Amsteel Blue, Zing It, and Lash It). Specifically, the awl is used to "open" the cordage to pass the cords through and inside. The awl tapers from a needle tip to a 5/16 or 3/8ths inch shaft diameter For opening the seams of cordage up to a diameter of 1/8th, this knife is excellent. It is short enough to be handled easily with less than 5" of overall length. In spite of this Awl's good construction and the fact that it was packaged in a small cardboard box within an Amazon envelope, the tip appears to have suffered "impact damage" and was burred as a result. As well as the shaft, there was a form-fitting plastic pouch that showed crumpling and punctures. I had to erase that burr with just a few strokes of a 600 grit diamond sharpening card. Of course, you can do that once you possess the tool, as well The dropping of pointy things is their natural enemy.
As it's meant to be used, I used it accordingly. Though I am not familiar with leatherworking, from what I can see, this tool is sturdy, and it can be used to punch holes in leather intended for making shoes that I made a bicycle seat cover out of. The thickness of 6 oz).
As a first point, I gave the product a 4 star rating for sturdiness because the tip is very fine and hence If you handle it the way it is intended, for example, tracing around patterns or suggesting hole locations for punching, or aligning stitch holes for multilayer stitching, or reaming to fit a tight rivet hole, it should last for.
This is a very well made tool that is perfect for punching holes across sleeves and bottoms of T-shirts. To make the skirt and trim, crochet a skirt and trim to the shirt. I didn't have to go to the hardware store because this one is better and fits my needs perfectly.
It has been a lot easier to crochet slippers with this awl than with a needle and thread. I like how easy it is to use, and how sharp it is. The only thing I wish it came with is a durable case to protect it.
I'm very impressed with that sharp.
