Does anyone know who made or makes these leather stamps? They seem to be well made. Somebody emailed the picture to me and I would like to know if they are still available.

I cannot say specifically, but way back in the 1980s (I think it was), the Tandy catalog used to include pages like this for their tools, which in my opinion were well made then.

I do not remember the outlined hex , but they certainly did a Greek T shape.

Yeah. Looks like a Tandy page alright.

Those are Barry King tools. He still makes most if not all of them. I recently bought the shell border and the box burst w/dot.

Yeah those prices on that page are not Tandy prices.:)

That makes sense of the prices, thanks Buzzardbait.

I just remembered the imprint pictures in the old Tandy Catalogs, and may even have some in a box.

Thanks Buzzardbait and everyone. Does anyone have contact information for Barry King Tools? I have a McMillen catalog coming. Trying to put a "compendium" of leather tools together as reference for some leather classes I'm working on. Any tool impression charts with manufacturer and tool numbers would be welcome. After 53 years of enjoying leather work, I'm making an attempt to give back some of my experience.

Everyone brings joy into this room. Some by entering, and some by exiting.
