5.0 out of 5 stars best scribing tool on the market, July 11, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: General Tools 843/1 Pencil Compass and Scriber (Tools & Home Improvement)
i've bought quite a few tools for scribing, and none this cheap.beyond that, this is absolutely the best tool for the job. it has a long, fine point, so it gets in every little spot for a clean scribe. i do finish carpentry for a living, and i use this tool all day long. I realize its a cheap highschool compass, but if it works, use it. i would buy this above ANY other scribing tool out there, so the rediculous price tag is an added bonus.simple, and does thejob, very well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, old-fashioned tool, June 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: General Tools 843/1 Pencil Compass and Scriber (Tools & Home Improvement)
We looked everywhere for this tool (my husband is a retired Wood Shop teacher). He wanted one small enough to fit in his pocket and capable of holding a pencil. They cost 49 cents in the old days! No one at the box stores knew what he was talking about. Low and behold, we found it on Amazon--General Tools is still selling them. We ordered two, just in case! It's a great little tool that is indispensable.

4.0 out of 5 stars what a great tool!, September 27, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: General Tools 843/1 Pencil Compass and Scriber (Tools & Home Improvement)
I love my little scribe. Sure, it's a little dinky with no frills, but you get what you pay for. If you want a nicer tool, go with Veritas -- but you WILL pay. I always keep one of these guys in my tool belt -- it comes in handy for scribing for special cuts -- I use mine probably at least once every day. It's small size is a benefit when making those occasional awkward scribes where a large scribe might not fit. If you want a scribe, this is really all you need. Simple. Effective. Cheap (for the price, it can't be beat, and it's easily replaced!) Go nuts! Keep a spare in your truck or tool box!
