Thanks grmnsplx so it's actually 9 teeth per inch i would have to order as REN has explained to give the Blanchard style stitch. REN if you could explain how i would go about getting a price for a 2 teeth iron and a 10 teeth iron please ?

I have to tell you first it's exactly 3mm between each teeth, this may be a slightly different from 9tpi because Chinese use cm not inch. Cmdachong told me he makes 2+7 teeth for 3mm and it's 90 shipped.

But you shouldn't worry about the difference. I used Blanchard 8 tpi and Chinese 3.85mm and I can't tell a difference. I make a mark with Blanchard and check the mark with 3.85mm, they match. But I feel I have to tell you this info, just to be responsible.

Thanks for explaining REN , i have another request there is a Korean web site that sell a metal corner template with different sized corners i'm not sure if i can post a link so i hope i've explained myself it's like a flat piece of steel with rounded corners of different sizes that you can cut round or mark the leather , have you seen these on your searches ? i should say i have contacted the Korean website on three separate occasions but haven't received a reply . Cheers Dave

Yes, translucent plastic for 8 and metal one for 20, if you buy the pricking iron. Dimensions are in cm. I attached pictures.
