How to use

Place the leather on a suitable cutting surface such as a cutting mat or scrap hardwood. Mark the centre of the desired cut, position the punch over the mark and ensure it is perpendicular to the material. Apply steady downward force using a mallet or hammer on the punch end until the cutter penetrates fully through the leather. Remove the waste piece and, if necessary, clean the edge with a leather skiver or light sanding to remove any remaining fibers. For thicker hides, make the cut in stages or use additional force while keeping the punch aligned.

Usage recommendations

Maintain the cutting edge by stropping or light sharpening when performance decreases, and store the punch dry to avoid corrosion. Use a suitable striking tool and a stable backing surface to prolong tool life and ensure safe, precise cuts.
