Metal sewing thimble

I have searched for more than 3 decades for a thimble that fits my guy fingers. Found it.

Artisan leather supply is a great place for leather workers to shop, with reasonable prices, and fast shipping, they can't be beat. When I need a tool this is my first stop.

Very clever design they are there when you need them yet out of the way when you dont.

Wonderful quality and craftsmanship

Solid metal for protection, deep divots so needles do not slide off under pressure while sewing, and has holes for stitching in padding\\Stitched inside the ring a small thick piece of leather to pad it up...fits like a glove! Can wear it on any finger or joint. Terrific product!

I bought the "do it yourself" variant and made essentially two leather rings. They are so comfortable I forget I have them on and have had people ask about them as rings! I can put them on any finger, and turn them any way I want to be able to push needles through difficult leather. I have had two different people ask about them for hand sewing fabric. No more stitching palms, regular thimbles, leather patches or sore fingers for me!

It was great help for leather sewing

Item is sturdy and well made. Exactly as described. Will do business with them again.

This item may be a small addition to my kit, but it has solidified the "buy once cry once" approach to how I purchase tools. The only suggestion that I have is that dipping the "wings" in silicone would stop the tool from digging into the back of my knuckles as much, as I use it on the first knuckle of my finger

I’ve used this recently to construct an iPad cover where I was hand stitching through at least 5/8” of firm leather. Without this handy device, I wouldn’t have been able to stitch through without pliers. This is VERY SOLID and rigid. The holes in it make it easy to seat the eye {the pushing side] of the needle so that your can very firmly PUSH THROUGH the stitch hole. Thanks Henry for carrying so many USEFUL tools!
