What Customers Are Saying
The product is a well-constructed center punch that performs effectively for a variety of tasks, such as starting holes, setting nails, and working with tough materials. Many users praised its quality, hardened tip, and ability to withstand heavy use without dulling or bending. However, a minority of reviewers reported issues with the punch bending or breaking, especially for larger nails or more demanding applications. The tool may not be suitable for the most delicate or heavy-duty jobs, but it appears to be a reliable and durable option for general workshop use.

Can't go wrong with this punch

Right Tool - Right Job pt.3
Would RecommendThis punch is an upgrade & replacement from the one I had many yrs. ago, which was a S. Craftsman. I purchased 2 of these for my needs. These are much better than using a plain nail too. And much more accurate too.

Broke immediately
Would Not RecommendThe model I purchased yesterday was a 1/16" pin punch. I was using to push out a safety wire from a drilled bolt. Punch immediately bent, then broke after a few careful, on-center, strikes. Overall disappointed with the durability.
