MelissaFdez Report post Posted September 11, 2016 I'm a newbie to leather work and have been at it for about 10 months now as a hobby but have always been a fan of quality tools. I recently picked up two ASF&T circle punches but have been unsuccessful in finding any information on this company. Are there any resources out there that you'd recommend to someone interested in vintage leather working tools? Much thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinkerTailor Report post Posted September 12, 2016 Circle hole punches have been made by automotive/steam tool makers as well for use in cutting gaskets. You may have tools not originally intended for leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northmount Report post Posted September 12, 2016 See https://www.google.ca/search?q=+ASF%26T&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=VhzWV8KFOo6cjwOOz4SgCQ#q=ASF%26T+hole+punch for several ASF&T punches. Looks like Osbourne related. Used for leather and gaskets. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinkerTailor Report post Posted September 12, 2016 Now that i am not on my iphone, and can use google with a keyboard, i have discovered that Bruce Johnson has a 3/4 asf&t punch for sale on his site right now. He lists it as one of the common brands of arch punch he gets. He probably knows the history of the company and if they made other stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
