The Tekton Scratch and Punch Awl with High-Torque Handle has a strong, stout blade that is heat treated to 52–56 HRC to make the blade strong without being brittle. The overmolded grip provides a nonslip surface that is permanently bonded to the handle and won't degrade or become sticky over time. The handle's three-sided contoured geometry directly engages the structure of your hand for greater comfort and control. The blade is insert molded into the handle, and two “wings” at the base of the blade resist pushing, pulling, and twisting. Use the awl to scratch thin lines onto a workpiece, mark centerpoints, punch holes into soft materials, or align holes in parts.
