Review on SE 791LP Durable 12-Piece Leather Set by Wayne Lemke

Revainrating 1 out of 5

DO NOT BUY if you REALLY USE them for leather work!

At first glance, it seems like the tool for making perfect holes in the skin. I punched 6 holes through *very* soft leather (1mm) with mine and after the FIRST hole was punched, the device was actually already bent! This is a design flaw - the block is soft metal (aluminum?) and is not supported across the entire face by a recess to allow the skin that has been knocked out to be pushed out. In hindsight it would have been better to just have a hollow tube and let the skin build up and come out the other end. I was able to straighten the tool and use it for *a few* more holes (6 total) and then the damn thing broke. I will not be buying anything from this manufacturer again and I strongly advise you not to. .

Pros
  • Nice little thing
Cons
  • A few little things
