Useful and inexpensive! .... a tool everyone should have in their shop.
This tool is so useful I carry it in my carpenters apron all the time. I use it for scribing and punching holes in all sorts of things. It's inexpensive and quite effective. I love the fluted handle too. Yes, I recommend buying it.

Perfect for punching holes
This is a very sturdy, and quite pretty product. I use it for sewing button holes for accurate 17-1800s bodices before they use grommets. It works PERFECTLY for my needs.

Handle Issue
This tool met expectations with one exception. The handle twists making it harder to punch holes in some projects.
