Handmade Seam Ripper and Sewing Awl in Bethlehem Olive Wood- #D142

Each handmade seam ripper is handcrafted by me in Bethlehem Olive Wood. Double ended seam rippers are a most useful tool and great gift. The body is ergonomically comfortable to hold, and each end is reversible for safe storage. Each piece is hand turned and unique. You will receive the actual item in the photos, not a different one from a bulk lot.

This outline style was inspired by a customer’s great grandmother’s awl from the late 1800’s. It was beautifully turned in walnut and she thought it resembled my seam rippers. The difference was the tip was concave cut where most of mine are a bulb type tip. This antique cut is in remembrance of her.

All wood and laminates are encased in a durable CA Finish. This process involves coating the wood in up to 16 coats of super glue, allowed to cure, and finally polished to a glossy sheen using up to 12,000 grit. This process encases the wood body in a smooth, durable, glossy shell that protects it from hand oils and discoloration for many years to come. Do not buy a wooden pen without knowing how it is finished.  Many other techniques can and will most likely discolor and quickly lose their luster from use.

These Seam Rippers use a double O-ring on each reversible piece, these do not scratch the polished surface like internal compression springs and hold more securely. They are easily replaceable though extremely rare.
