## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good scribe, strong magnet
*by D***W on June 2, 2025*

I had this scribe for years then I lost it and bought another one. The bit wasn't held tightly but I took off the cone that holds it and sanded off a mm on the back and then it clamped tighter

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic, but it's a little pricey.
*by D***R on May 3, 2025*

Fantastic! It gets the job done but it's a little pricey.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handy but with Some Quirks
*by E***S on August 26, 2025*

Handy but with Some Quirks I’ve been using this tungsten carbide scribe for marking lines on metal and wood, and it does a solid job overall. The tip is sharp and makes clean, precise marks without much pressure, and I like that it’s replaceable—that’s a thoughtful touch for long-term use. The built-in magnet also comes in handy for picking up small screws or nails when I drop them, which happens more often than I’d like to admit. That said, the pen itself feels a bit lighter and less sturdy than I expected for something labeled “tungsten carbide.” It doesn’t have the heft of a premium tool, and the copper finish, while nice looking, doesn’t add much grip. Also, the cap can loosen up if you’re not careful, which made me worry about losing it in a busy workshop. Still, for quick marking jobs and the occasional magnetic pickup, it’s a useful little tool that I’ve been reaching for regularly. It’s not industrial-grade, but for everyday hobbyist or DIY use, it gets the job done. Bottom line: A good value tool for casual use—precise tip and handy magnet, but build quality feels a little on the light side.
