Leather Working Tools |
We've hand-picked a small selection of Leather Stamping tools (and mallets) that are among the best choices for miniature leatherworking projects.
Did you know that you can sand, file, grind or change the shape of some of these tools to customize them to better suit your needs? All you need is some sandpaper or files, a hard surface (such as the top of a bench-vise or anvil) and a hammer, (a grinder will work if you have one). You can modify standard off-the-shelf tools to be smaller or more refined.
MalletsWe offer two mallets: an inexpensive and light-weight wooden mallet, as well as a traditional rawhide mallet (9 oz. weight). These non-metal mallets are best for use with leather stamps, as they won't damage or mash the handles.
TL410 | Wooden Mallet/8 oz. | $10.00 |
TL412 | Rawhide Mallet/9 oz. | $30.00 |
