stitching awl

He accidentally stuck an stitching awl into one eye.

Stitching awls are frequently used by cobblers (shoemakers) and other leatherworkers.

They turned bones into stitching awl and sewing needle indicating the production of clothing from hides or manufacturing of baskets.

A stitching awl is a simple tool with which holes can be punctured in a variety of materials, or existing holes can be enlarged.

Material goods found in the shelters include metates and manos, stitching awls, abraders, hammerstones, knives, and scrapers.

Deer, sheep, rabbit and other animal bones were also shaped for tools, such as stitching awls for making clothing, working hides and weaving.

Most victims were shot with a .22 sporting rifle and stabbed or bludgeoned with a wide variety of weapons ranging from stitching awls to bricks and iron bars.

Shoemakers consider sewing awls to mean for sewing leather, i.e. what archaeologists call "edge-flesh stitching"; while stitching awls are meant for stabbing through leather.

A lawyers bodkin is similar to a stitching awl: it consists of a pointed metal shaft with an eyelet near the pointed end connected to a bulb-shaped wooden handle; the shaft is kept attached to the handle by a ferrule.
