"These cut clean holes with ease. The price is a bit hard to swallow. . . but using lesser tools comes with a cost, too. I've been working to slowly upgrade tools in my shop that cause frustration. No regrets on this upgrade."
"The Master Tool Oblong Leather Punch is a huge step up from the bargain-bin punches I’ve used in the past. Cheaper tools tend to crush the leather or leave ragged edges, but this one delivers crisp, clean cuts with almost no effort. The steel feels sturdier, the edges stay sharp longer, and the overall precision is on a completely different level. If you’re tired of fighting with flimsy tools, this punch is absolutely worth the upgrade."
"I decided to invest in this tool but it has not worked for me as good as I hoped. I used my pondicherry board under it and could hardly get it through the leather without pounding relentlessly and it still wasn't all the way through. So I used it on my granite slab which I know you don't want to do but it was the only way to get the punch through the leather. Well now its chipped up and I've tried sharpening it but its still bad. I wonder if mine was defective or something but I'm so sad I spent so much money on it and it's worthless."
"So glad I purchased this (and two other Master Tool oblong punches). SO MUCH BETTER than the cheap punches I've had for years. These punches are sharp; one tap with the mallet and a clean cut is the result. I wish I had upgraded years ago, I would have saved time, had cleaner cuts and not been so frustrated."
"Love it. Cuts amazing. Very solid quality."
"Works perfectly 👍"
"Sharp out of the package and the ‘belt slot’ in my pancake holsters are so much more professional in appearance. The time and effort are reduced to a couple of mallet strikes!"
"Awesome tool and I can feel the quality difference between this and lesser models"
"It's sharp and cuts smooth. Only used it a few times so far but excited to use it in the future."
"Very nice quality product. Cuts right through with ease."
