Appreciate the concern haha! The way I'm doing it is pretty standard - just gotta use your shoulder to pull in a more limited range in case anything slips. I could use a knife sharpener though...
Yeah, I had a pending order from Starko (starkotools.com/category/sewing), so I added a few square awls to that. Before they arrived, I just filed down the broken ones so I could finish the shoe. A regular flat awl is definitely easier and less prone to breaking, but leaves a much larger hole so would only be suitable for
Love to watch!
Thanks!
You were giving me the creeps the way you were applied so much force whilst pulling those blades on your lap! Good work nonetheless friend!

Did you end up getting a new awl after your other ones broke? What awl do you think is best to get for putting holes in the outsole
