Members Alan Bell Posted December 19, 2008 Members Report Posted December 19, 2008 Don't forget Bob Douglas also makes awl blades! Vaya Con Dios, Alan Bell Quote
Members antipaladin Posted December 25, 2008 Members Report Posted December 25, 2008 Bob found me a nice double screw creaser. I ordered it on Monday, got it on Wednesday. He apologized it took so long because he cleaned it up and shined it up nice. GREAT guy to buy from.He's also willing to hand pick a particular blade thickness for you. Quote
Members 338uwm Posted January 3, 2009 Members Report Posted January 3, 2009 Glad I found this thread. I've been trying to find a real awl blade. As I'm a newbe and have been useing an awl that I modified. Can anybody suggest a size for hand stiching. I do mainly holsters and small repairs on saddles, and simular gear for friends. I know I could probably tell them over the phone what I'm looking for. It's just somtimes I have a hard time explaining things over the phone.

Members JLD Posted January 31, 2009 Members Report Posted January 31, 2009 Is there a way to contact or order an awl without ringing. Call charges from Australia and #### How much are they? Johanne Quote Johanne "Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly"
