@@jayfron6012 well, I can tell you the technique is a standard sewing stich. I have a leather needle that instructs the same stich. (Check it out if you have a hobby shop nearby.) I think there are 2 "twists" on this technique: - using the chisel to make holes for the awl. I think the reason awls have a blade edge is so they can make their own slot - no chisel prep needed! - the SAK has a slot hole, so theoreticaly you could use it to sew with leather lace. If sewing with thread, you wouldn't need the slot hole, and you could get away with a smaller diameter. On the other hand, consider the effort (pounds of force against the leather material) increases with the following: 1) sewing thread with a needle. 2) sewing thread with an awl. 3) sewing leather lace with an awl. Which is to say, I think I'd prefer #1 for thread, or #3 with lace - this puts you back to needing a slot hole! I'd put a hole in my Leatherman awl, but I'd probably put it only 1/4-3/8" from the tip.

Not like Ive compared the two side by side or anything like that so honestly Im absolutely just guessing.

Beautiful example of sewing needed for sailcloth as well as leather and canvas.

that’s a nice, uniform stitching pattern you have there, brother. I always just use the awl on the knife to do the punching as well as the stitching, but now I see the error of my ways. The awl on the knife just got emergency repair use, not so much for every day projects, so the biggest surprise of this was watching you slip your project into a stitching pony. Which tells me you probably use your Swiss Army knife instead of a standard one, for doing your stitching on the regular. Lots of good stuff to think about here. Thank you.

At last! A genuinely interesting and useful KZread short! 😅

What a Super Tool! My SA knife was a hand me down & I've grown so fond of it that I just pulled it out of my robe pocket to see the Awl.😃 Usually, it's in my jacket, but I grabbed it off of my nightstand this morning,

I learned this in the boy scouts, it's nice to see someone that still knows how and teaches others to do this. I don't know how many times I've gone camping, and had to do this for someone that needed this kind of stitching.

Prepared enough to have twine or threading, the knife and the leather. What was it actually needed for?

Hatchet holster? "Always be prepared."

@@favoritemustard3542 I'd use the twine as a lanyard, a loop n girth hitch n it's a holster. Use a button knot/some hitch for a quick release maybe. Seems way quicker/more efficient.

During this very great short you made I was like omggggg. Thank you it is perfect

I learned something new today. 😀 Thank you!

Nice. I appreciate the knowledge transfer brother.

Great video! For leather tool pouches I like to weave in and out with a sewing needle. Takes much longer, but if the string gets cut it will cinch on itself and not come undone.

I never would have guessed that those two tools were for sewing leather together.

You can just use the awl directly, no need to use the screwdriver to make the holes first.

Finding out, at age 54. Unbelievable! But still Grateful. Thanks for the demonstration.

Nice lesson! The stitching technique (pulling extra floss through for the other side, instead of using a separate piece)applies to a regular sewing awl just as well. I have no experience with it, but I have a couple of repairs waiting, and this will help.

Perfect for closing any wounds you may get while camping.

Great channel. This video and the rest of the videos uploaded are perfect. I see that the "Ranger" model is your favorite. For general use, it is the one I like the most due to the weight/volume/tools. Congratulations!!!!👍👍👍👍👍

Good video. Answered questions I didn’t know I had. Thanks.

That is really awesome!
