Lately I have been looking to make a small investment in a nice set of pricking irons. Dixon, Osborne, Blanchard, I've looked at them all. As I'm in the U.S., the C.S. Osborne irons are easily obtainable, and at a reasonable cost. My issue, however, is that I can't seem to find any images/reviews of the C.S. Osborne pricking irons. The website just has a computer-generated stock image, and I was hoping to see the actual tool. So, anyone here have experience with the Osborne pricking irons? I am looking to buy the 7 and 8 spi. I'm just trying to get an idea of how these differ from the Joseph Dixon/Blanchard irons. Thanks

I have a nice piece of this same leather, but I am reluctant to make a bag with it. How'd it sew? Did you skive the edges?
