500 Pieces 10 mm Square Pyramid Studs for Clothing Bag Leather Shoes Punk Rock Jewelry Craft, 4 Prong Metal Nailhead Studs Spikes Accessories with Awl (Silver)

After shopping around for studs and spikes, I settled on this kit for pyramid studs. I was pleasantly surprised that this kit came with a storage case and a leather awl. I have not used the awl as my jacket is made of denim, but it seems to be of decent quality and will come in handy for other projects. The studs have very sharp mounting pins that are easy to push through heavy denim and can be easily crimped with a metal implement like pliers, a thimble, or screwdriver. The finish is shiny and smooth, making things like satchels and backpacks easy to slip over garments studded with these pieces. It takes time to place these studs, but that's part of the fun of crafting. Take your time and make sure that each stud is flush mounted and that the pins are securely crimped in place.

I wasn’t sure exactly how much 500 studs would be but it’s actually a lot! They have 4 points of connection which feels more secure than the 2 points— plus they don’t stick up on the edges like the other ones so they’re less likely to get caught on stuff an pull off. They come with an awl for tougher materials and it helps make them easier to install. They look great and shine like crazy— highly recommended!

Perfect and easy to use.

I love them, came with so many an I use these all the time.

So i had purchased these originally for a leather jacket, but upon receiving them I discovered that the prongs are incredibly short. So short in fact that even in a hand press they still would not penetrate entirely through the leather. So I instead decided to use them on a military canvas jacket I had laying around and cut it into a vest to start on a new "battle jacket". While the prongs are easily sharp enough to completely piece single layers, doing areas like the collar, pocket flaps and lapel where the fabric was double layered was almost completely impossible do to how very, very short the prongs are on these studs. If they doubled the length of the prongs these would be perfect.

They look good. And we'll made. I haven't try them. But when I add them to my vest. Then I'll add picture.

Easy to put on

I love these studs. Easy to work with. Goes through denim with ease, prongs close well, very sharp be careful. Haven't fallen off in the wash. No rusting. Use them for so many projects and keep buying more! I tried other brands and this one is my favorite. Great for Battle Jackets, Jeans, Sneakers and so much more! The awl is a nice bonus too, very sharp.
