These needles are used for sewing leather. They're for thicker leather
than garment leather. The triangular tip cuts the hole and the curve
gives the hand something to press against to make the hole. Think of
the 2nd curve of the S as a handle for pushing through the first curve
as if it were a c-shaped needle.

Bottom of the page.
Anyone know what they would be best used for, or use them before, or
anything? I've never seen this kind of needle before, and wanted to
know more.
