MICK LOCKERBIE: Good Quality Item

Larito: Me siento estafado pues dice la descripción que es un puntero automático y es un granete normal para golpear con el martillo, aunque se ve de buena calidad

Amazon Customer: Excellent product just what I needed for the job

Luther S.: I've used punches that when you touch the metal with them, they want to slip, and I have sharpened them, which does help, but, this one seems like it has a magnet in it, it stays put until you can tap it with a hammer, I think it will last a lifetime. Very pleased with it. Would buy again if I had need for it!

CHIKO: the size is perfect

Bob Terwillager: Fantastic center punch. Best I’ve ever used by a long shot. For years I bought the cheapest tools and I’m finding that they were a waste. Everything I’ve had that was Starrett is still doing great. This punch finds my x easily and stays sharp.

Amazon Customer: needed a larger center punch for ages finished up going for this one and surprised and pleased at the quality of this tool good length and excellent grip would recomend this tool and Starretts any time .

G. E. Druce: There is not too much to say about a center punch. It is a center punch and it does, indeed, make a good indentation to start a drilled hole in the right place. What is special about this center punch is the fact that I was able to buy it. Before I looked on Amazon I went to three hardware stores none of which had a center punch. Two of the stores had so-called automatic punches which have two distinct disadvantages: they cost more and it is not possible to exactly locate where the punch will make its indentation.

The picture on Amazon is deceptive: you will receive one punch, not a set. While I was not deceived, I did take a star off my rating to draw any reader's attention to this un-picture-perfect situation.
