I am very pleased with this hand tool. I am sewing fifty A3 artist books and my usual tools were not really up to the job. I am able to manage 5 sheets of 200gms paper at a time - there are 46 sheets in each book; it is a labour of love, enjoyable, meditative. I first tried a much cheaper option and returned it, as it could do no more than my awl - one page at a time!
Exactly what I was looking for to punch holes into leather. got the separate 2mm attachment, the puncher is very easy to use and sharp, leaves a very clean hole in the leather. Delivery was speedy too. Overall, very happy with my purchase.
It’s beautiful kit. I’m wondering why I didn’t buy it years ago! I’m half way through and really enjoying it.
Works well and good to hold useful for paper modelling
The paper treat box really is a great treat. I love the Italian paper scissors and the gorgeous Japanese mechanical pencil. The handmade wooden handle awl is of great quality. I have always wanted the metal ruler for cutting and protecting your fingers. Handmade twine and quality papers and tapes The box is great value for money. I also got a gift of Beyond Measure 10 Year Tote and pencil. Thank you so much for those. I highly recommend this box full of goodies.
