I bought this item because I wanted to learn how to do leather working. Without a sewing machine capable of sewing leather this is perfect. With this little hand stitcher you can sew almost anything on the spot and if still being used for leather, people will always like something made by hand than a machine! This product does a really nice job as far as sewing goes. It's easy to change the needles and it's also easy to change out the thread spool. I actually got two, I got the second one after I got my first and the reason why is because this tool can be used for more than just leather working. I'm also a prepper! This is definitely something that belongs in a survival kit.. If you need to see something on the spot then by far this is a must have. You can fix a tent, your jeans! You can even see animal hide to make clothing or something for storage! This tool is worth a whole lot more than what being charged. I recomend this to any leather worker as well as any prepper that's looking for what there missing in there bug out pack! This one is awesome!

Really tough and awesome tool.these guys hit it out the park.i have used it on some real tough jobs now and it never slows down.the key differances between this style and the speedy stitcher are mainly quality and needles.speedy stitcher is a poor quallity but has one advantage.it can take sewing machine needles for regular thread.that would make it a bit more versitile.but the lock stitch is much better in quality and useability.it wont take needles from a speedy stitcher as they are not inter changable.i have one of each in my emergancy-camp bag.but this lock stitch awe is the one i grab first.tandy leather is a very good company with years of experiance in the industry and their quality tools reflect this.when i first got my awl in the mail i imediatly noticed the thread and needles where both superior quality to the speedy stitcher as well as the machine work on the device itself.this lockstich awl had no burs on the threads and was smooth to thread and use.my main wish is that it had come with a second spool and maby a difrent needle as well,or even a spare of the one it came with.but the price is very nice for this kind of quality.i do recomend watching the tandy leather lock stitch sewing awl video on youtube as well as it shows a better way to finish your stitch.i do recomend this tool as opposed to the speedy stitcher.it is deffanatly built to do heavy jobs.if you camp or plan on a survival bag,add this tool.for its size and weight its a power house and will repair your tent,clothes,shoes,sleeping bags,knife sheith,backpacks and whatever other dirty camp job you may need.i do have a seven peice sailing needle set i add to this as it rounds my kit but thats another story.if you are a leather crafter this is a must have.it can even handle some upholstery work.needle is very sharp!!! Use some sence when useing this tool cause that needle will punch right through a finger.also i advise being gentle with the chuck tool.it is a softer metal and will bend if abused.i dont know if this helps anybody thinking about buying this product but i hope it does.learning how to use it is a pretty easy task and in a few hours you should be makeing some nice projects with it easily and with some speed.use a good quality waxed thread like what it comes with.and get creative.this guy is a bit more versitile that it looks.hope this was usefull and good luck.Again i recomend looking at tandy leathers videos as well.they have a very good channel on youtube and should help you decide if this purchase is right for you.

Instrument parfait pour la couture du cuir, mais une seule aiguille ne suffit pas !!! Il serait judicieux de livrer ce produit avec 2 aiguilles supplémentaires (une beaucoup plus fine et une courbe).

I wanted a Triple Magazine Pouch to hold three 30-round 9mm magazines, Unable to find one that would fit my needs, I decided to modify one I had that held 9mm magazines up to 18-rounds by lengthening each of the straps securing the magazines. With no access to a sewing machine heavy enough for this sewing job, and not wanting to take it to a shoe repair shop to have it modified, I decided to do it myself, and ordered the Leather Factory Lock Stitch Sewing Awl and a 5 yard roll of 1-1/2" nylon webbing on Amazon.com. The instructions and diagrams that came with the Sewing Awl were easy to understand and very helpful, as I am definitely a novice when it comes to sewing. The needle on the sewing awl is very sharp, which helped it penetrate the multiple layers of ballistic nylon material, and the waxed nylon thread was easy to work with, simplifying the lock stitching process. I took my time, making each stitch of uniform length and tension. I am now the proud owner of a Triple 9mm 30-round Magazine Pouch that looks like it was professionally manufactured, if I say so myself, thanks to my Leather Factory Lock Stitch Sewing Awl.
