Overview

Sized at 2 3/4 inches, this Osborne arch punch is built for wider strap and hardware holes in leather, and carries a 5.0 rating with no review text on file. It cuts one fixed diameter.

This size sits well above Osborne's 2 1/4 inch cutoff for one piece forging, so it shares the two piece welded barrel construction used across the line's larger punches. It carries a 5.0 rating, though the written account behind that single rating is not included in this data.

  • 2 3/4 inch cutting diameter
  • 5.0 rating recorded
  • Two piece welded barrel construction
  • Model 149-2-3/4 from Osborne

Who it's for

Leatherworkers who need a 2 3/4 inch hole for wide strap or hardware work. Not the choice for anyone who wants to read what a buyer actually said, since no review text is available for this listing.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 5.0 rating on record
  • Two piece welded barrel sized for wider holes
  • Made by a dedicated punch and leather tool brand
Cons
  • No written review text available to confirm the rating
  • Single fixed diameter only
  • No separate attribute data beyond the punch itself

Performance notes

It works the same way as the rest of the 149 line: the barrel is driven through the material and its inside taper is meant to let the cut disc clear so the tool does not pack with debris. At 2 3/4 inches it is built with a two piece welded barrel rather than a single forging.
