Japanese Steel Awl
Size: 150 x 5 x 5mm
Material: Steel

Very strong and sturdy and suited for use with a mallet when making holes for stab bindings, or similar. The shaft and point are machined from a single piece of steel. Tip is extremely sharp, with a long taper which ensures evenly-sized holes throughout.
