I occasionally do leather lacing of thing like knife scabbards and these little needles are perfect of the ⅛ inch leather lace. If you haven't used them before, it is very helpful to take a sharp razor blade and carefully slice about half the thickness off the lace for a length of ½ inch so that the needle can better grasp the little thin tab you've just created. It is also helpful to use a pair of pliers to mash the little claw grasps into the leather prior to using.

I used this for the first time and was amazed at how easy it was to load the leather on it. The needle held the leather really good and I finished my project with no problems.

I have used these needles in many leathercraft projects over the years so when I began another project and needed to lace leather strips I thought of these needles. Didn't think twice about ordering them. Thought they would work for what I needed them for. They didn't, but that was my fault for ordering the wrong size. Strips were too thick and too wide for the needles but I am still giving them 5 stars because they would have worked if the strips were narrower and thinner.

Very well made. Got the whole package and I am still using the first one I pulled out. Tandy Leather products have always worked well for me. Quality tools and works as designed.
