    • Unlike a standard carpenter’s hammer, the Osborne #66 leather hammer is designed specifically with leatherworkers in mind. The rounded, polished striking face is ideal for working directly on leather where a conventional hammer face may leave unwanted impressions.

    The forged steel head provides durability and a solid striking feel, while the traditional hardwood hickory handle offers comfortable control for detailed bench work. This versatile hammer is widely suited to:
  • Shoemaking and shoe repair
  • Leathercraft and leather goods production
  • Flattening and setting leather seams
  • Tapping stitched seams
  • Forming and shaping leather
  • Setting glued leather assemblies
  • Belt and wallet making
  • Bag and luggage construction
  • Saddlery and harness work
  • General cobbler and leather workshop use

    • A quality shoemaking hammer should feel controlled in the hand, deliver consistent strikes, and protect the leather you have spent hours cutting, stitching, and shaping.

    The C.S. Osborne #66 Leather Working Hammer is a proven workshop design made for exactly that purpose. Its polished rounded face, forged steel construction, and compact hickory handle make it an excellent upgrade from an ordinary household hammer for serious leatherwork.

    Ideal for beginners building their first pair of handmade shoes and equally at home on a professional cobbler’s bench.

    Add the C.S. Osborne & Co. #66 Leather Working Hammer to your shoemaking tool kit and bring professional control to every strike.
