Highlights
Quality
Top quality, expect a long service life from this high quality tool
Going to last a lifetime and the best quality.
I used this on a very high end install of fireplace glass door hinges with (4) holes in each hinge and had no tolerances for an error.
I tried several cheaper center punches and returned them for poor quality and intermittently not punching worth the money.
Price
Expensive and absolutely worth every penny .
All the center punches my co-workers have are those cheap under $10 ones made in china.
Expensive but worth it if its something you value.
Competitiveness
What you would expect out of an american made precision tool manufacturer.
