INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Mark the position of the hole on the material and place the material on a stable, strong surface, preferably a cutting board or a surface that will not be damaged. Hold the awl firmly and place the point on the marked spot, then push firmly, turning the handle slightly, until the material is pierced. Pull the awl out with a straight movement, without twisting it. For stitching, keep the holes evenly spaced and of the same depth, then pass the thread through. Do not use on materials that are too hard and always keep your free hand away from the path of the point. After use, clean the point with a dry cloth, protect it with a cap or store it in a safe, dry place, out of the reach of children. Check that the point stays sharp and undeformed: if necessary, resharpen it or replace the awl.

English awls in steel, with a thin blade curved to a quarter circle, designed for shoe repairers, leather workers and leather craftsmen. The steel point, with a 1/4-shaped groove, pierces hide, leather and tough materials precisely and guides the thread during hand stitching. Useful for marking and preparing stitching holes, repairing shoes, bags, belts and other leather goods, or for finishing sewing work where a clean hole is needed. The handle gives a comfortable, secure grip for controlled work even on thick materials. Sturdy and easy to handle, it is an essential tool for anyone who works with leather.
