Chinese Scissor

A great old-time style scissor.. Hand-forged and very sharp. Great for all your beading projects. Cuts leather easily too.

Fiskars Micro-Tip Scissors

Comfort and precision in one little scissor. Softgrip handles make cutting easy & relaxed, bringing a new level of comfort to work. Micro-tip has an extra-fine point you can actually see. Now you can make any meticulous cut down to the smallest snip. Fiskars are always a bit pricy but are some of the finest scissors made and are what we use for our own work.

Hemostat Clamp

OK, you're probably thinking "what is a hemostat clamp and why do I need it?" Yes, it is used in the medical industry, but these things are great when you need an extra pair of fingers to hold something. For example, if you've ever done quill wrapping on rawhide strips, you know what a pain it is to prevent your quillwork from unravelling if you need to put your project down in the middle of a strip. These clamps will fix you right up! Although they look like scissors, they actually lock together when you sqeeze them shut. They won't open up until you release them.

Leather Hole Punch

This tool is used to punch holes through leather (for making breastplate and choker spacers, etc.). There are punches for six different hole sizes ranging from 2mm to 5mm. These are fine quality and made in England.

Scratch Awl

Here’s one of those indispensable items that no craft kit can be without. You just never know when you need to make a hole! Wood handle with sharp steel point. 4 inches.

Thread Clipper

Another useful item for your craft kit! A great little tool that's easy to handle and super for those hard to reach places where scissors just don't "cut" it. (Yes, a bad pun).
