Members luckystrike Posted February 5, 2008 Members Report Posted February 5, 2008 (edited) So I bought a ton of used leather tools and since I am new to this some of them are foreign to me. I have googled and looked everywhere but cannot find out what this pear shaped punch is for or even another one like it. Any clues? Edit: I should have given the size, it's 4" the long way...

Drac Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 depending on the size, it could be for zipper pulls, or keychains, or concho flaps, or make up a use for it. just make sure ya takes pics if ya do. we loves us some pics! Quote
TracyMoss Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 Looks like it could be a puch for the buckle end of a set of dovewing or strap style spur leather. Quote

TracyMoss Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 HOW BOUT a leather tab for a key ring........if you have other items in that box you might not need list them on here for sale ! Hey Luke, In my experience the two can be interchangeable. Spur, keychain Quote

I would Luke but don't know what most things are worth. I put some stamps on e-bay last week and can't believe how many bids...I bought what was there for the sewing machine and leather...didn't know what a huge hobby this was... Quote
Members kseidel Posted February 5, 2008 Members Report Posted February 5, 2008 That punch is for cutting a buckle or ring "safe." That is the wear leather under a buckle or ring to keep the hardware and straps from wearing against and pinching the horse. Used largely on harness. Keith Quote
