In this brand new series I will take you through ALL of my tools that I use in my leather work and let you know where to get your own, how to maintain them and the best techniques to get the most out of your tools.

In this episode of tool time I am talking all about crew punches, also known as the oblong punch. I show you the ones I have and use the most as well as how to sharpen them :-)

Hope you enjoy the video
