I used this tool to punch the holes, though it is also available from Amazon at a little better price. You could also look on Amazon for similar tools, some of which I've seen for as cheap as $10 or $12. Just do a search for leather hole punch and you'll find quite a variety of options depending on your budget.
For the pyramid studs I didn't need to punch holes, the tines on the back were sharp enough to poke through the lambskin vest well enough. For a tougher leather I'd recommend an awl for these. I used the wooden handle of my awl to help bend the tines over so I'd stop stabbing my fingers and bleeding all over the inside of my vest.
