Awls are used in bookbinding to pierce holes in paper, board, leather, fabric, and other materials before sewing. They’re specifically designed to have long, uniformly thick points so they do not enlarge the hole as they’re driven deeper. This bookbinding awl has a lightly finished wooden handle that sits comfortably in your palm. Can be used with paper, fabric, fleece, vinyl, plastic, leather, board, felt, and more. Thinner point than our smlawl. 3.25”

We ship worldwide! International orders are subject to all applicable customs & duty taxes & fees. These fees are not included in the shipping price.
Orders placed online and by phone generally ship within 48-72 business hours. Paper and Ink Arts is closed on Saturday & Sundays, so orders placed over the weekend will begin shipping on the following Monday.
If there is an item in your order that is out of stock, we will contact you via email when your order is packed to allow you the choice of having your other items shipped or having your entire order held until your backordered item arrives.
Shipping charges are simply the standard UPS or USPS rate of shipping your package to your location based on the package's weight. Sheets of paper require a tube for shipping, thus your shipping rates will increase from the amount you see on your online order to compensate for the extra parcel. No handling charges are ever added.
If an item doesn’t suit you, package it carefully to avoid shipping damage. We’ll be glad to give you a full credit or refund for the price of the unopened/unused item. Please note:
