The Scraps n Pieces Tapered Awl 5" is an essential piercing tool for makers working in bookbinding, crafts, and material preparation where clean, controlled holes are required.
The tapered metal tip allows for precise hole making, giving you control over the size and depth of each puncture depending on pressure. This is especially important in bookbinding, where holes must be clean, consistent, and properly aligned without damaging the paper.
The dark brown ergonomic handle provides a comfortable and secure grip, making it easy to use even during longer sessions. It sits naturally in the hand and offers excellent control for repetitive work.
It is suitable for paper, cardstock, leather, faux leather, and other materials, and is widely used in hand bookbinding techniques such as coptic stitch, pamphlet stitch, and other sewn structures.
