Stitch00 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 I had great results from my KS Blade irons, but feel I’m ready to push forward to pricking irons, and awls to produce a higher quality stitch(eventually LoL!). Palosanto awls came today, and I was imeadiatly impressed with the quality and finish. Service was personal, and shipping was fast. Now I just need to start punching and stitching some scrap before a mess up any good bridle leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alisdair Report post Posted November 1, 2018 ...nice! I got them to do a custom very thin 1.4mm awl for some of my finer stitching. It works like a charm, but I'm always afraid to break it, as it starts to get a bit bendy below 1.8 mm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stitch00 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 I went with 1.8 and 2.2 I think that will cover between 9 and 7 SPI, but I could be wrong, I often am! It's unusual to receive tools and not have to polish and prep them before work. I guess that's the advantage of going with a small shop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
