Leather Tooling for Sheaths and Holsters
Shop leather tooling for stamping designs, burnishing edges and hand stitching sheaths, holsters, belts and wallets. The lineup covers a spring-loaded stamp handle and steel 3D leather dies in seven designs, a hardwood mallet, a four-groove wooden burnishing tool and a 2-pack of polished steel stitching needles.
Our steel 3D leather stamping dies are 1 inch square and press a bold design into a knife sheath, holster or patch, with Cross, Dragon, Flaming Motor Skull, Indian Buffalo Skull, Live to Ride, USA Flag and War Eagle to choose from. Once a die is seated in the 4 inch spring-loaded stamp handle, the spring balances the pressure of every strike and the non-slip textured grip keeps the stamp under control. Drive the handle with the wooden mallet, whose 4 inch hardwood head on a 10.5 inch handle hits with a soft impact that spares your work surfaces.
For hand-sewn seams on belts, wallets, sheaths and holsters, the 1.850 inch polished steel stitching needles come as a 2-pack, and their smooth eyes pass waxed thread without fraying. To finish, run the leather edges along the natural wood burnishing tool, whose four grooves suit different thicknesses and whose large, ergonomic handle sits comfortably in the hand.
For help picking among the seven die designs, drop us a line, and snap setters, leather glue and sanding supplies for the rest of a build are listed under holster making tools.
