Bohin Tapered Awl with Wooden Handle

The Bohin Tapered Awl is a practical hand tool for sewing, crafting and other detailed textile work. Its fine tapered metal point is designed to help create or enlarge holes with precision while giving you greater control over your work.

The smooth wooden handle provides a comfortable grip, making the awl easy to hold and maneuver during detailed sewing and craft projects.

Unlike a cutting tool, a tapered awl can be used to gently separate fibers and open a hole, making it particularly useful when preparing openings for eyelets, working with buttonholes, guiding fabric or performing other precision sewing tasks.

Compact and easy to keep in your sewing kit, this Bohin awl measures 11 cm - 4" in length.

A tapered awl is used for tasks such as creating or enlarging holes, separating fabric fibers, preparing openings for eyelets and other detailed sewing work.

Does the awl cut the fabric?
A tapered awl is primarily designed to push and separate fibers as it is inserted rather than punch out a section of fabric. Always work carefully to avoid damaging delicate materials.

Can I use this awl for installing eyelets?
Yes. An awl can be useful for preparing and gradually enlarging an opening before inserting an eyelet, depending on the fabric and eyelet size.

Can beginners use a sewing awl?
