The page is for the handle only. You can build your awl by choosing the Blanchard awl blade here.
This Blanchard flat awl handle is designed for use with pliers awls and other flat-blade tools, offering control, comfort, and reliability for hand stitching and leather perforation. Its balanced shape and solid construction make it a dependable choice for both detailed work and longer stitching sessions.
Handmade from carefully selected cherry wood, each handle is shaped and finished by hand using traditional techniques. The wood is smooth to the touch yet substantial in the hand.
A fitted brass ferrule reinforces the joint between the handle and the blade, providing added strength and durability. This construction helps prevent splitting and ensures the handle remains secure even with frequent or demanding use.
Handle size is a personal choice, but the following pairings are recommended:
Small (85 mm) – suitable for 38 mm pliers awls
Medium (95 mm) – ideal for awls and tools from 43 mm to 56 mm
Large (105 mm) – best for awls and tools 60 mm and above
