vintage cast iron leather punch

Posted 13 years ago

I know that is a hole punch. It has a patent date for oct. 9, 1800. What was it used for and is a rare thing?

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Looks like an old press to put grommets or cold rivets in material.

Leather punches usually came with an assortment of dies, are those removable?

I am not sure. I haven't tried to take any out. It is still operational. It works fine.

fhrjr2 has it right, I have one of these that is used to set grommets, usually used with canvas tent material and brass grommets.
