Setting An Awl Blade - Alternative Method - Leathercraft Masterclass

Описание: In this video I show the technique I use to set an awl blade so that it doesn't set crooked in the awl haft. An offset blade can often occur due to the pilot hole in the haft not being true. So the coin and vice method doesn't give great results even with the best of intentions.
Buying a pre-set blade is no better as most factory workers don't care that they have set a blade slightly crooked, so a straight blade is often down to luck unfortunately.
I also discuss an easy method to remove a broken or damaged blade meaning that a switch out is quite simple.
