Below I have 4 awls in different designs. Each of them has a specific use for my projects. It's sharp enough to go through thick skin, although you should take care to protect your fingertips on the other side. I used this to separate two pieces of contact bonded leather to press on the loose ends of my seam instead of tying a knot. For that it worked great.

To be honest this isn't quite the sort of tool I would normally overestimate, but it's hard to overlook how well built it is. Such a simple item but the materials and construction scream quality. It's a shame I don't use many of the specialty tools on offer, but if that were to change for any reason I would not hesitate to buy from this manufacturer again. .

This works well and has already solved many of my knot problems in life (John 3:16 solved others). But seriously, I never thought it would be such a handy tool. Easily penetrates knots without scratching/catching delicate materials. The natural wood handle is quite large, which makes it easier to control. It has also survived my abuse (accidental drops, beeping, cutting tools, etc.) with no apparent signs of wear. But what really makes this food so special? What makes it above all other feeds…
