- They were exactly as described, therefore exactly what I needed. And they are Dritz - I've never had a single Dritz pin or needle that was not perfectly smooth and very sharp. No burrs. I don't have any idea how billions of small pins get Quality Control done on them, but however it's done, Dritz does it superbly - I've had other types of pins actually be unusable because of burrs and whatnot, so this is one of the *very* rare cases where I do stick with one brand.
- I use pins for all sorts of things, including using them as small nails, and they remain strong and shiny, no corrosion. I'll be using these as "nails" for small wood items. And this was a LOT of pins for the price, so I won't run out any time soon ;)
- For fabrics, I "stick" (ha ha!) with the white-glass-head ones that are really long and super-fine, but these shorter ones have all sorts of uses, so I couldn't pass up a box of 750, LOL!
