The item was returned to the seller. Butter wouldn't be able to cut through it.
This tool is made of steel and has a plastic handle that appears to be ergonomically shaped and hardened. As well as gasket material, upholstery cloth, leather, and foam rubber (1/8" through 1" thick) I have used the set to cut Although they are relatively cheap, they are quite adequate for their purpose. The thinner materials (gasketing and leather) actually do work well. Heavy blows were taken by thicker materials, especially carpet.
The same was not true of mine. However, even in the event a protective coating was applied, it could be easily removed
For me, it is the most efficient way to cut holes in leather and soft plastic. A copper sheet might cut through it once, but the cutting edge would be ruined. You should use a drill to make the holes in the coin, and after that, a metal reamer to clean them out.

Although the inch sizes are WAY off, there is no metric and inch equivalent. For example, if there is a 6mm, which shows 1/4" as its equivalent, then 4 quarters is one inch, BUT 4 6mm is only 24mm and an inch is exactly 25mm. The thickness is 4mm, The number 6 is the sum of 4 divided by 4. The 35mm format. While you may not be bothered by this, this is simply unacceptable for me. The description of an item must be accurate and not just misleading or just false. I expect this at the moment of purchase. It is actually illegal to engage in this practice, referred to as false advertising, under federal law. It's clear from the image that the pin pointer in the center is out of alignment. As far as the cutter itself is concerned, it is rolled or curled so that it is As it cuts discs from material, this is not a leather hole punch or something else that you can use to punch a hole in, i. e. anything that has to have a hole in it. If you are cutting chip board, it is not recommended that you cut it It is impossible to sharpen a cutter at an angle that will prevent something with thickness from getting torn or stretched out at the edge of a hole. The latches on the case don't stay closed and the case has poor locking mechanisms. A disc must be disassembled after it is cut, so it can be removed from the cutter after it is produced. This is a very poorly designed and the quality is not up to par. We are returning it for all the reasons detailed above (especially the incorrect description)*By the way, ABN is actually the name of an auto body network. Although the company is not a leather tool manufacturer, it sounds as though they produce tools for automobile body work and are attempting to sell the product based on something it was clearly not designed.
This was one of two sets I bought from this seller after purchasing another set for a lower price. I returned the previous product because the large dies were difficult to use- Getting a cut was so difficult that I had to pound for a long time. The cut along one quarter or side of the large one was often more difficult and I was lucky to get a clean one. It is even more challenging to have your other half try and he does not have much better results than I do. As such, I returned the previous set and bought this one in its place. There is no doubt that this is a scholar set, and it is of great quality. However, I am experiencing the same problem with the larger dies - While this set is much better, it has similar issues. I suspect that since the larger dies are large, they do not receive the full force of the actual pounding device. I'm not sure how to fix this. Despite the fact that I'm satisfied with the set and I like it, giving it 5 stars for something that doesn't function right is difficult for me. Although that is a complaint, I am still favorable towards this product, so I do not want you to let it deter your decision to purchase it if large dies aren't a.
While I bought a cheaper kit some time ago, I believe it was Neiko, and while it worked, I had a hard time cutting it. There are a lot of improvements in this kit, including its price and sharpness. My first attempt at using it left me shocked since I gave it a good hit to get through the thin cardboard and it just went right through and into my board. time, I lightly tapped it and it was perfect. The edges were smooth and there were no jagged edges to be seen.
This tool has not only worked well so far but I have made only a few gaskets with it. There is a lot of steel in this item and it looks If it was used to cut thin metal sheets, I would assume it could be used. There's no way I can afford to pay that much.
Neither I nor anyone I know can order the foam gaskets that seal each tail light bulb in my car. An inner diameter of 25 mm and an outer diameter of 35 mm are their dimensions. I found that buying the set versus buying punches individually was cheaper. I was able to make very nice replacement gaskets with a little practice.
Punching holes in carpet is used for installation of posts in closet systems. Despite not being specifically designed for this type of application, it worked really well.
Its variety of sizes is what attracted me to this set I thought that was a positive thing. There was only ONE rubber gasket that I had to make. It was determined that the cutting edges were not performing as expected In parenthesis In order to get the cutter to cut a 1/8" piece of rubber, I had to pound it 10+ times very hard. What I expected wasn't what I got.
Aside from the punches themselves, the box housing them is also impressive, this looks like a kit that I will be able to use a lot.
