C.S. Osborne No. 518 Glover’s Needles

C.S. Osborne glover’s needles have a three-sided cutting point that pierces leather cleanly, making them the standard hand sewing needle for gloves, garments, and light leather goods. The egg-shaped eye accepts waxed thread with less drag. These No. 518 needles come in sizes 000 to 7, from about 2-5/16" down to 1-3/8" and 17 to 22 gauge. See Curved Leather Point Needles for upholstery leather.
