Straight Leather Slot Punch – 12 mm
High-quality steel straight leather slot punch designed to cut a clean, straight 12 mm slot in leather with a single strike. It is particularly useful for leather lacing and for installing bag locks and other bag hardware that require a narrow, precise slot in the leather.
What is it used for? Unlike a traditional round hole punch, this tool creates a 12 mm long, narrow straight slot. It is ideal for leather lacing and for installing bag locks or other hardware where a precise straight opening is required.

How to use: Mark the position of the slot and place the leather on a suitable cutting surface. Position the punch vertically and strike it firmly with a mallet or leathercraft hammer to cut a clean 12 mm slot.
Pro tip: When installing a bag lock, carefully mark the exact position of the required opening before punching. A straight slot punch allows you to create a cleaner and more consistent opening than cutting the slot manually with a knife, especially when several identical slots are required.
