In our antique furniture restoration shop I am very careful what needles I use in my $11,000 industrial sewing machines. No matter what machine you use, good needles produce good stitching. Conversely, cheap junk needles can ruin a $600 piece of leather, sheer off and hit your eye or bend and plunge sideways through your finger leaving a ragged stitch. (The answer is “yes” to all three. eduction is expensive and sometimes painful). These are good quality, last for weeks of hard use before delaminating and glide smooth snug stitches every time with minimal lubrication in the leather. I tried them on my book binding press and they aren’t quite made for that kind of abuse. But they’re not really meant for that...at all... I wholeheartedly recommend these needles for heavy Leatherworkers, upholstery, saddle making and fur-on leather products (but that takes a custom purpose built machine). They were fairly priced, high quality and arrived in timely fashion. I can highly recommend this seller. You may save a nickel from another seller but you won’t get this level of service. And if your time and finished product pays the bills, customer service is EVERYTHING.

My favorite brand of needles to use. Always reliable, good quality
