Burfitt Stitching Awl with Stainless Steel Point

For craftsmen dealing in leatherwork, canvas crafting, or heavy upholstery, a standard needle simply won’t cut it. The Burfitt Stitching Awl is a specialized tool designed to easily puncture, enlarge, and manipulate holes in tough, dense materials. Whether you are repairing a thick canvas tent, crafting a custom leather tool pouch, or binding a handmade book, this Stitching Awl provides the exact leverage and sharpness required to push through without damaging the surrounding fibers.

Professional Workshop Applications

Constructed with a heavy-duty, razor-sharp stainless steel stiletto point, the shaft is tapered to allow for precise hole sizing. The further you push the awl into the material, the wider the hole becomes, giving you total control over the diameter needed for your specific thread or twine. The stainless steel resists rust and corrosion, ensuring a frictionless glide through dense leather project after project.

Engineered for Precision

Ergonomics play a huge role in manual leatherworking, which is why this tool features a smooth, contoured hardwood handle. It sits comfortably in the palm of your hand, absorbing the pressure required to pierce heavy materials and significantly reducing hand fatigue during repetitive stitching jobs. From professional saddle makers to weekend DIY hobbyists, this tool delivers reliable performance.
