5.0 out of 5 stars "badge punch"
I attend a number of conventions, both business and social and I either end up poking holes in my clothes or having something dangling from my neck and getting in my way. My solution was to purchase the above product which punches a nice rectangular hole in the badge, plastic room key, etc. which I can then clip to mu clothing with a salvaged "snap clip". It works...

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent
The only complaint I have about this hole punch is that the depth guide/guard tends to slip. It's easy enough to set the guard for the depth of the badges you wish to punch, however when you insert a badge into the punch, it pushes the guide back so you lose your pre-set depth. You have to basically hold the guard in place while you make the punch. Quite frustrating...

I attend a number of conventions, both business and social and I either end up poking holes in my clothes or having something dangling from my neck and getting in my way. My solution was to purchase the above product which punches a nice rectangular hole in the badge, plastic room key, etc. which I can then clip to mu clothing with a salvaged "snap clip". It works wonderfully. The above product is professional grade and easily will punch through multiple layers of paper & plastic. A very fine special purpose tool, and the company shipped the same day as my order.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for our small group's purposes, October 21, 2008
This review is from: McGill Metal Products 16500 Badge/Slot Punch, 9/16w x1/8h Horizontal Hole, 1/2 Throat Reach, Black/Chrome (Office Product)
This product works pretty well for our purposes in punching about 60-100 nametags per year. My one complaint is that the adjustable paper gauge does not hold in place very well.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good buy, May 3, 2008
By 
Overall I am really satisfied with this product, I don't feel I have to buy a different model at a much expensive price. I think this one does a great job as well as the expensive ones.
And Shoplet (the company that sold me this product) is great to work with.

looked everywhere for easy to use hole puncher for badges, found this and it works great. only downside is the rubber sizer slips, would be better if it locked in place.

This review is from: McGill Metal Products 16500 Badge/Slot Punch, 9/16w x1/8h Horizontal Hole, 1/2 Throat Reach, Black/Chrome (Office Product)
Works well.. doesnt create snags as some punches do. Emptying the punch tray is a little bit of a pain but nothing to keep one from purchasing it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Slot punch broke!, March 21, 2010

This review is from: McGill Metal Products 16500 Badge/Slot Punch, 9/16w x1/8h Horizontal Hole, 1/2 Throat Reach, Black/Chrome (Office Product)
Ordering from Amazon.com has been a terribile experience. I ordered and got a McGill 16500 Badge slot punch the second week of February. I used it for the first time the fourth week of February and it broke punching through a laminated badge. The badge was not very thick and did not exceed the maximum thickness for this punch. I then tried to find out how to return the slot punch on a very confusing Amazon.com website where I couldn't find a return policy. Since they only allow 30 days to return a broken item, I missed the window. lost my money and have a broken slot punch from McGill.
