5.0 out of 5 stars Great Punch, January 2, 2008
This little punch works better than I would have expected for the price. I bought it as a backup to my Starrett punch but find I am using it more. It's light weight makes it convenient to keep in a shirt pocket.

5.0 out of 5 stars %100 PURE GENIUS, January 1, 2004
By A Customer
This is the best punch money can buy...PERIOD!!!. FLAWLESS operation. works better than any overpriced snap-on punch or any cheap bulky $1.99 punch.The slim pencil design is by far superior to anything in existance. It is that good!!Think About It..

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice for the price., August 31, 2009
By The Saint "Tech Guru" (Culver City, CA) - See all my reviews
It has a thin sharp point which makes it easy to be accurate compared to other heavy thick pointed punches. I prefer to use an Incra ruler and if you have to use a punch, this works quite well. Light and easy to carry in a shirt pocket and very satisfied with the low price. Would definitely buy another.
