Harness Needles vs. Glovers Needles

  • Harness needles have a rounded tip. More often used on leather where holes are pre-made with pricking irons or punches.
  • Glovers needles have a sharpened tip. More often used with canvas or fabric where pre-made holes are not needed. Can be used on leather but will take more force to pierce through the leather.

Stronger than it looks!

Don't let this little thread fool you, it is tough! I use it to saddle stitch wallets and sheaths, and I really yank on the stuff! It holds it's tension very nicely (and looks sharp too) I have no trouble fitting it through the tiny eye of my needles

Perfect

It's such a step up from my previoius thread. It doesn't unravel, doesn't split at the end, and the wax provides the perfect amount of friction to keep pulling for the tension. It also fits super well with the CS Osborne needle I got

only the best

This is the only thread I've used since starting leatherwork. Lets just say I have no need to try anything else. It threads easily, is super strong and is easy to melt the ends to secure your stitchline

Purrrrfect!

This tiger thread 1.0mm is perfect for larger heavy use items. I ordered it for a briefcase and have no doubt it will hold up for years to come. It is just the right amount of waxed that it did not have excess wear at the end of ~36" of stitching through 2 layers of 6/7 oz veg tan leather.
