Ok leathercrafters, where do you purchase your leather stitch punches? I am making a few knife sheaths and have a sailmakers sewing tool, but will need to get a punch to keep the stitches equally spaced.  Thanks, GH

For what you are going to do, one can get overstitch wheels from Tandy leather for very little and make do fine with 6-8 stitches per inch.

At times I use a thonging chisle from Tandy. Works very well.

What happened to the other posts to this thread? CB had posted and a few others. Would have liked to reread them as they had a lot of info. Huh???
