This specially made leather pricking iron from Oka of Japan has been honed and tempered for excellent sharpness and durability. This tool can be used to make evenly spaced diamond-shaped stitch holes in your leather, resulting in consistently professional results. This pricking iron is constructed of high-quality steel and is rust-proofed, providing you many years of service. The non-slip, ergonomically built handle fits your hand comfortably, allowing you to grip it securely and firmly while working.

This two-prong leather stitch punch is very useful for stitching around curves and adding thread holes in small increments. The sizes are engraved on the handle, allowing you to easily identify the correct tool size you will need for your work.

Size (space between tips of prongs):

  • 3.5mm

Available prong numbers (each sold separately):

  • 2-prongs
  • 4-prongs
  • 6-prongs

When overused, the prongs of this tool will break off rather than bend because they are heavily tempered, making them hard yet fragile. This is due to its design, which prevents the stitch holes in your leatherwork from being uneven. Tempered prongs provide two advantages: To begin with, they snap off rather of bending, protecting your leatherwork from uneven stitching, which is not the case with cheaper pricking irons, which bend and damage your leatherwork with uneven stitch holes. Second, it provides long-lasting tips that require less honing and have more penetrating force. These characteristics provide the user peace of mind, knowing that the leathercrafts they have worked so hard to make will not be damaged.

Make sure you use a soft-headed hammer if you use this pricking iron. When attempting to remove it from your leather, never rock it side to side; instead, pull it perpendicular to the leather to avoid breaking the prongs. Keep this tool at a safe distance from other tools and materials.  Finally, avoid dropping it or striking it against a hard surface.
