The Schmetz Leather (DH) Needle has a half triangular cutting point. The cutting point cuts easily through leather, artificial leather and heavy non-woven synthetics. It also creates a straight stitching line, which makes the seam appear particularly accurate and straight. Please note: Leather needles are not suitable for textiles due to their cutting effect, as woven or knitted fabrics can be severed during sewing. Schmetz needles are compatible with the following sewing machines, Singer, Viking, Janome, Elna, Necchi, Brother, Baby Lock, Juki, Bernina and Pfaff.
