> 24 hourI knit a lot of socks and these are my favorite double points. The metal finish is really smooth (and doesnt wear off like the Susan Bates metal needles) and they dont bend easily at all.

> 24 hourThe red lace circular needles have nice sharp points with memory free wires. I also have size 1 (2.25) double pointed needles for sock knitting; they dont slip. ChiaoGoo are my go to needles. I purchased the small interchangeable set; best knitting thing I ever did. No, Im not being paid to say this.

> 24 hourOne of the tips on the needles is super pointy and sharp. As I work with it I have to make sure I don’t lead off with the sharp end, which slows me up a bit. I actually purchased two sets, and the other set is fine. Not worth sending back. I may need to see if I can smooth it out.

> 24 hourI have replaced my Knitpicks wooden DPN with these, because the others broke too easily in small sizes. I find these smooth and quality, but recently bought a 9” circular needle, and after some adjustment, prefer this for socks for the reduction in dropped stitches, faster knitting. I am sure I will need both at times. The metal needles are smoother, and therefore may drop stitches more easily. The other issue I found is that the dark wooden needles made it harder to see dark yarns, so the silver worked better to see the stitches in those situations.

> 24 hourThey are very smooth. Nothing catches the yarn and they each have the size on it.

> 24 hourThese needles are perfect. Pointy enough without stabbing your finger tips. When brand new they feel like if they were coated, which they aren’t, but they do get smoother after a few uses.
