    Hi, I have seen the type of tool you mean, its used in upholstery work also mainly for car trimming !

    It can be found here . http://www.hwebber.co.uk/car_trimming_2.htm

    i think those guys are From the US but you should be able to get the tool in the uk

    Ray

    Ps Rugrat would be my first port of call of course !! ;)

    All I have found regarding an awl with a bent end is a Crain tool which the point goes off at 45 degres not as sharp as the one pictured.
    However I am off to a tool show next week so I shall keep my eyes open for one of these.
    Regards Rugrat :D
