Leather Double Stitched 6" Sandbag

This round, double-stitched 6" diameter leather sandbag is a foundational forming tool used by jewelers, metalsmiths, and silversmiths for shaping, smoothing, and chasing metal. Constructed from thick, heavy-duty leather sourced from camel hides and imported from England, this sandbag delivers the durability and performance that professional bench work demands. Metal has been formed using sandbags exactly like these for millennia—a testament to their proven utility.

To use, place the metal being shaped onto the sandbag surface and strike it with a planishing hammer or nylon forming hammer. The bag absorbs impact while gently supporting the workpiece, allowing precise control over shaping and smoothing. It is ideal for repair work involving dent removal and surface imperfections, as well as chasing applications where a yielding, stable surface is essential.
