I read all the negative reviews as i waited to see if they were true or not (there wasnt any point reading the good reviews really) , and im NOT a fan of flimsy cheap stuff, so once the tool arrived i tested it right away to see how it will work and hold up against this hard tough #11 leather that im working with. The tool is solid, strong, and not flimsy... (if it breaks as i use it which i doubt, ill come right back, erase my review and let everybody know about it). It doesnt cut a clean hole all the way through but thats fine, take a toothpick or something similar and push the piece through. The little circles get stuck inside but that isnt a big deal either, same remedy, take a needle or a toothpick and push it right out, OR just keep punchin holes and the garbage will come out on its own from the back. Final thiughts: ive used other hole punchers that are AAABSOLUTE trash, and this isnt one of um, i recommend it... 'for now.
Okay, here is the continuation of the review, ready? Here we go, PART 2: one of the orange handles came off, the other one is still very solid, no problem the thing still worked. Next, the metal piece on the side that holds the wheel in place and makes that clicking noise when you turn the wheel? Broke! Now, what s left is the rest and im still able to use the tool, however, i dont have the convenience of making holes without making sure the wheel doesnt turn, AAAND i have to set it in place each time i make a hole. Final thoughts- im keeping the tool, ill be able to use it in the future but i just gotta wonder, what do those professional leather people use out there?! Would i recommend this tool? For thinner leathers yes, for thickest leathers i dont know what to tell ya, it did the job but i had to go through some bumps on the road. There MUST be a really tough serious tool out there for this 😕 i can almost picture it 😌 all stainless steel heavy shiny and smooth operating... or is that just how id like it made? 😉 i give up, i really do😂
