Description A 1 Prong chisel is a specialised tool used for punching holes in leather for the purpose of lacing. This particular chisel is designed to create holes that are 3 mm in diameter, which is ideal for use with Kangaroo Lace that is also 3 mm wide. The chisel itself consists of a single prong that is sharpened to a point on one end and attached to a handle on the other. To use the chisel, the user places the point of the prong at the desired location on the leather and strikes the handle with a mallet or hammer. This creates a clean, circular hole in the leather through which the lace can be threaded. The 1 Prong chisel is a popular tool among leatherworkers and hobbyists who need to create precise holes in leather for a variety of projects, such as lacing together pieces of a leather garment or creating decorative designs. Using the correct size chisel for the width of the lace ensures a snug fit and helps to prevent the lace from slipping or coming loose over time.
