The description of these punches looks like they will punch holes in leather

Finally time to try them. The description of these punches looks like they pierce holes in the skin. They aren't, except on the surface. They create slits large enough for needles with larger threads to pass through. The slits also narrow if you sew them too long. To minimize this, open up the hole slots by re-punching them from the back (if possible). The punches worked well with nylon threads up to 150 denier. So far not a single pin has broken. Make sure the punch is pressed against the skin and hit it with a mallet (a 5- to 6-ounce hammer works well). Use a soft touch such as B. a piece of white pine, as the pins of the punches need to penetrate about 1/4 inch past the back of the leather to open the hole to the full diameter of the pin. Bought another set tonight.

Pros
  • Sturdy workmanship
Cons
