CHOOSE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WORK

A hook-ended sewing aid with a specific hard-material instruction

Choose the HARFINGTON for the hook-style working end when picking up thread ends or loosening knots is useful alongside sewing. The seller also names marking, shaping and assisting perforation. That is a different point choice from a diamond awl or a blunt fid.

Its stated overall size is 160 × 18 mm (6.3 × 0.71 in), with a 60 × 3 mm (2.36 × 0.12 in) needle component. The handle is wood, the needle stainless steel and the surface polished. These are tool/component dimensions, not a finished-hole diameter or a 3 mm leather-capacity rating.

For thick or hard material, the seller specifically asks you to make the opening with a proper punch first, then use the awl to assist. Choose the Tandy diamond awl when the intended role is that point form, or Osborne for blunt enlargement and knot work. One complete HARFINGTON awl is supplied; no thread, spare needle or interchangeable mechanism is itemized.
