> 3 dayThe 1/16 punch will break easily. Every manufacturer has the same problem. The solution: Use a small Phillips screwdriver to punch

> 3 dayUpdate 8/21/17- Added a star and wanted to comment on the great customer service. After seeing my original review seller sent another set for my review which was much better. Still not the best you can buy but very useable for the price paid and much cheaper many others out there. Thanks Rettun for the extra effort. --- end update --- I really dont understand all the rave reviews on these as I make quite a few purchases on Amazon and usually from studying reviews I always come out on top and getting what I expected. These arent that impressive to me... almost all of them are bent right out of the package new. Maybe my expectations are off for a $12 set of Chinese import punches. They actually look pretty decent and the roll pouch is nice enough but I think I pulled almost every one of them out and rolled them on a flat table to check how true they were. I could see a wobble (some bigger than others) in all of them. Many of them are crooked enough you can see theyre bent before rolling them. Theyre import cheap -but the reviews were so good? I came back to see if maybe I miss read or miss ordered? No, all the 5 star reviews are here. Will they still do ok slightly bent?...or should I send them back? Im going to guess theyll get the job done for an occasional DIY home gunsmith for a cheap enough price but theres no way they can be 5 stars, somethings wrong here. If your an occasional user like me give them a shot for $12, might be all you should be spending for one or two builds and a little mantinance. If your a real gunsmith, training and studying to be one or will use these enough to warrant spending more... Id say keep looking.

> 3 dayThough this was more of a just in case purchase, I actually ended up needing some of these punches sooner than I expected. With that being said, their build quality is excellent. The aggressively textured handles really help to retain the punches while using them. The carrying bag that comes with them is also very sturdy, and I dont expect it to fail, rip, or wear heavily any time in the next decade or even longer. Im not a huge fan of the pointed tips, as it seems more redundant than anything and not very helpful for driving rounded pins back in. Aside from that, this punch set covers every common sized pin Ive had to take out so far. Id definitely recommend these at their current price.

> 3 dayIve already had to use a few of these and they held up well and worked perfectly! I chose these because they were the lowest price, but they were very high quality especially so for the price. I love them and after they saved me a lot of trouble on my last job I expect to use them many times in the future. Highly recommend these!

> 3 dayThis pin punch set is a great value for the money. I recently had purchased and returned several low cost China punch sets, either due to, premature punch breakage or having defects right out of the box. However, the TuffMan Tools set get a thumbs up for having decent quality for the price.
