Product Details

The most accurate way of placing screws or drilling holes is to start with a pilot hole. This positively locates the screw or drill bit right where it is needed before you start to drill or screw and keeps it in place while you do so. This is where an awl comes in useful. Its sharp point allows you to create the pilot hole precisely where you want it.

The high speed steel blade is hardened to Rc 59-61 and features a sharp point for accurate hole placement in both hardwoods and softwoods. As the blade is hardened high speed steel rather than carbon steel, the point is much sharper, will stay sharper for longer and will not bend or wear down. Its extremely smooth finish prevents it from sticking especially when used in wet or green wood. Turned from solid Bubinga, the handle is ergonomically shaped to give you a firm yet comfortable grip making it a pleasure to use. This precision awl has an overall length of 125mm and is perfectly sized for any tool box or bag. It comes with a lifetime warranty - if any awl fails due to a material or manufacturing defect it will be replaced free of charge. ©

Seamus Connolly

Lovely awl it makes an everyday tool into something a bit special

Matthew Olver

The perfect awl, sharp, well made and tactile.

Philip Mitchell

Small and sharp, nice wooden handle, easy to grip and twist. Perfect for the job.

Clare French

My husband loves this awl. Having lost the first one I bought him from Rutlands while out on a job, he decided to get a cheap replacement from another online retailer which bent after its first use. I felt sorry for him so I bought him another decent one from Rutlands. It is very well made and well worth the money. It is a a lovely looking, high quality and very useful tool.

John Rich

Wonderful piece of kit, well made, does exactly what it is designed for without much effort. Quality!....

Gerry White

I have an awl that belonged to my father and is over 100 years old. It has been continuously sharpened it and is now too short to use easily.

So why spend this amount of money on a new one when I can spend a quarter of the price? Quality, it feels superb in the hand looks fantastic and it makes great holes and people notice it, what more could I ask for, it is simply the best.

Keith Irving

Feels like it was made for my hand. Which it probably was! Lovely.

Anthony Armstrong

Very nice awl, very sharp and well made and finished. Just the right size for comfort. V Good quality tool, but a but overpriced for what it is. However, if you want quality, and this is the best I have ever seen, then the price is the price!

Lewis Alexander

At last, a comfortable, easy to find and beautiful feeling awl for not only marking, but drill setting, just pure heaven for someone who relies purely on touch when working with wood. a great investment and what I've been searching for, for some time. I highly recommend this to anyone because of the build quality, feel and balance in the hand, doesn't hurt in the hand when held, compared to some I've used in the past. I love this and recommend it to anyone looking for an awl that'll last a long time.

A Cracking Awl. Nice Sharp Point And Will Push Into Anything You Want It To Go In Too.

Nicole Britnell

Very nice sharp point, comes with a rubber protection tip thingy so must be pointy!
The picture makes it look bigger than it is. The whole thing is slightly bigger than my hand, it's good quality though.

John G

a little pricey, but well worth it. This makes marking out much simpler and more accurate.

Gabriel Cristea

Very please,make my job easy!

Ioan Davies

Very expensive, but a fantastic awl. Very sharp point, enters materials (wood and plastics) easily and makes a good indentation for subsequent hole drilling. Fits the hand well.

Jeremy Esland

Yes! A pleasure to use, this is a tool for life!
