Corsetry Awl

This tapered awl is the best I can find for corset making because the end is very sharply pointed while the base is nice and wide which means that you can poke through your fabric, a varying width of hole - up to about 6-7mm, depending on what you are making the hole for, whether it be the busk or grommets etc.,

This awl is extremely sharp. It will not tear your fabric - it works by moving the fibres apart, thus creating a nice 'seal' around grommets and hooks. See the hints and tips page for further info
