What would it cost me for a stamp like this? Right now I use a laser to burn it on leather but would be cool as a stamp. Thanks, Bobby

🙂

Those are nice. I may have to save up for those. I have an awl also but I'm really not big on round holes. I also have a stitching wheel that I got a while back. I need to get that out and practice with it also. Thanks for the response!

Lol Ya, I have a couple belt blanks that I've been wanting to carve. I like the way stitching on edges of a belt look but, no way am I gonna hand stitch a belt. I would probably have to have 20' of thread laying all over to stitch it. Lol Thanks for your replies my friend! Bobby

Ya, I like my diamond tools. The sizes on them are 2.3mm, 3.1mm and 3.9mm. I have only used the 2.3mm on all my stuff. Not sure where the bigger ones would be used. I like the tighter spacing.

This is the set I basically have now.

So I'm wanting to upgrade my pricking tools. Right now I have 6 spi angled tools. I'm looking for a set that I can use on my sheaths, holsters, pocket knife cases, etc....I only saddle stitch by hand. So here are my questions: Are round hole prickers better? What would be a standard mm spacing? What would be a decent priced brand? I was looking at some WUTA prickers on amazon. Any advice would be appreciated!! Bobby

Very nice! May I ask how do you get your molding soo refined? Looks great!

I am still amazed how a few simple tools can make leather look so beautiful. Great job! I didn't have many tools when I made my first sheath and I still don't have a bunch of fancy stamps. This was my first.

That turned out pretty nice! Great work!

It is funny tho' how this thread gets more replies than actual leather threads. Lol

What I'm really wanting is one good oval punch that I can use on all pancake sheaths and holsters for the belt holes. Can anyone recommend an all around good size and a quality punch? Thanks!

Well I guess the majority here is no "like" button. Lol I for sure won't be bringing that up again. 🤣

I don't know, I think if someone doesn't know much about a thread that's posted, but likes the content of the thread, a like button would let the original poster at least know someone read their post. Having to quote and then add a comment or emoji, tends to lengthen threads out soo far that most just get forgotten or just someone not wanting to read multiple pages of two word replies.

Didn't know where to ask this. Is there a like button anywhere? If I like a comment in a thread, I'd like to be able to hit a like. If I made sense here! Lol

Thank you!

@kgg Thank y'all for your responses. I have a bit to think about.

@kgg Thank you! Will read up more of what I will need it for.

@kgg I guess I need to look at specs on these. The thickest I have hand sewn soo far is 8mm. I don't see me sewing anything thicker in the future. I want something reliable and fairly easy to operate, but reasonably priced also. I'm not against a motorized model that can easily sew at least 8mm and lower but budget is an issue also. Thanks for your response! To add: looks like the Weaver is the only one that shows minimum sewing of 1/8"-3/4".

I'm just curious if anyone has or have used one of these? I like the simplicity of it and supposedly can sew up to almost 3/4" of leather. Also, with a social security budget, seems reasonably priced around $1600. Thanks for any input! Bobby

Very nice!!!

Man, that is some awesome work! Thanks for sharing!!

Welcome! That's a cool bag tag!

Nice job! Looks great! I have a knife with a cheap sheath on it right now that I hope to make a new one this week for it.
