Michael ★★★★★

The tip is ground so precisely that it starts exactly where I place it, no skidding. It’s sturdy enough for layout work, and the 5/64" size hits a good balance for fine marks.

William K. ★★★★★

The ground point on this 5/64" punch seats perfectly into scribed intersections without slipping. It made a clean, precise dent exactly where I needed it on my first try.

Eva R. ★★★★★

I needed a punch that would hit exact crosshairs without wandering, and this 5/64" tip does just that. The careful grinding really shows—it centers right where I want it every time.
