I came across an advertisement for the "Stitch it Awl" in Practical Boat Owner, noted that it was Australian, and therefore not too far away. I ordered the full kit and it arrived within a week.
Interesting, it is made in Airlie Beach, Qld, which is not only one of the most beautiful places on earth, it is also the site of my last vacation (4 years ago!...I work too hard).
In any case, without doubt one of those things that all sailors must own...and in the top 10 of my all-time cool gadgets.
Extremely well-built, heavy stainless steel. Nice wooden box. |
