Description:
Material: DC53 Cold-work Die Steel
DC53 Cold-work Die Steel, specially applied in punch mold making. This chisel is strong in hardness with high tenacity and great anti-rust properties. We adopt this kind of steel to make sure our chisel is of the best quality; meanwhile, it can indeed "serve" better in your craft projects.
Type: Obverse and reverse direction
Chisels have obverse prongs or reverse prongs. When you look down the holes punched by the obverse chisel, from left to right, the hole goes“up”. Holes punched by reverse chisel, from left to right, go “down”. This is to meet the higher need for punching and stitching. Furthermore, with these two kinds of direction, you can punch a hole on both sides of a leather.
Sizes: Prongs are in 9.8 mm length. This sharp punch can easily go through a thickness of 4.5mm or 11oz leather. (5.0mm or 12.5 oz theoretically).

Features:
We had been working hard on building a high-quality leather chisel since the first day we established WUTA. Our chisels were sent to different leather craft studios to be tested by various craft masters. Mostly, we received positive feedback. After overcoming all these difficulties, our original design chisel is now officially present in people's eyes.
Why choose our chisel？ Here are a few reasons.
Use Notice:
1. Because of the sharp and thin tip, please don't overexert when punching. Please use soft things like leather to protect it. It may be damaged if you use it on a hard object such as a cutting mat, especially in winter.
2. To extend the service life of the French-style chisel, we don't recommend punching more than 3mm-thick leather directly. When you punch more than 3mm thick leather, please punch separately in the obverse and reverse directions. Please straight pull out, don't pry on both sides. Thanks.
3.DC53 Cold-work Die Steel has great anti-rust properties. But it doesn't mean it will not rust at all. We suggest applying a little anti-rust oil when you don't use it for a long time.

Correct use of the product and precautions
- Hammer tools: Please use a nylon hammer, hold it near the hammer head for easy force. To extend the service life of the French-style chisel, we don't recommend punching more than 3mm thick leather directly.
- Punching table recommendations: Because of the sharp and thin tip, please don't overexert when punching. Please use soft things like leather to protect it. It is recommended to use a 4-5cm thick desk, and a WUTA thickened cutting mat, which is quiet and stable, effectively improves the accuracy of punching and protects the chisel teeth, and is not disturbed by the elasticity of the desktop and the hollow feeling of the rubber board.
- Since the French style pricking iron is a professional tool with "V" taper teeth, which means each tooth is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, although the 2 teeth and 8 teeth widths are the same, the force applied will also affect the size of the hole. Since the leather cut by the 2-teeth is smaller, it is sharper, so please control the force to be smaller when using 2 teeth. Otherwise, the 2-teeth will be easy to make deeper and larger holes. So if the first time use this professional tool, please control the strength and practice more, then you can make even holes.
- Use and maintenance: After each use, please clean the teeth and handle, especially for users with heavy hand sweat, to keep the tool in good condition. If not used for a long time or in the rainy season, please wipe the anti-rust oil with a cotton cloth and seal it in a ziplock bag for storage."
Use the Obverse & Reverse direction chisel to punch thick leather.
When you punch more than 3mm thick leather, please punch separately with the obverse and reverse direction to ensure beautiful stitches. And please straight pull out, don't pry to both sides. Thanks.
1/2 prong punching at the corner or short distances.
5-20 prong punching at short/long straight lines. When punching, two holes are retracted to prevent deviation.
