Description
Lasting Nails for Hand Shoemaking — 1 LB
Avetco lasting nails are Italian-made round steel nails with a lost head, made for hand lasting in shoemaking — tacking the upper to the last and insole as the shoe is built. The small lost head seats flush and withdraws cleanly, and the round steel shank drives easily and holds well. Available in three lengths (18–20 mm, including a hardened-steel option) and supplied by the pound (16 oz).
