These punches, made of tempered steel and refined brass, are suitable for inserting elastic ribbons and cords through a waistband, hood channeling, etc. The brass version is a needle that is split at the handle and open towards the eye, giving the tip of the needle a spherical shape. If a tape is passed through this eye and then inserted through the needle shaft halves, it becomes trapped and can then be pulled through the tunnel while firmly anchored. The other punch, made of stainless steel, is also a blunt needle. However, it has a wide, flattened and therefore thinner needle shaft with a long, round eye. The long eye is designed for picking up thick ribbons and threads, the round one is suitable for finer threads and O-rings. The rounded, burr-free tips of the needles cannot pierce the material and therefore slide easily through any loop or fabric tube. Balanced spring rigidity and smooth surface make these needles professional tools.
