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.

Good for plate steel

Would Recommend

Bought this punch to notch plate steel. Punch body is wide, so I needed to crouch to see where the tip was contacting the plate steel. A couple hammer taps produced a notch that my narrowest drill bit had no problem grabbing. Then widened hole with larger bit. After notching for eight holes, punch tip remained sharp.

Bendy punch

Would Not Recommend

Don’t bother! It bends on the first strike. I bought this to sink finish nails and it is so cheap it bent on one of the first few nails
