Edward Tools Center Punch Staking Tool for Steel and Metals — Heavy Drop Forged Steel with Durable hex shank - 6” X 1/2” X 1/4”

It knocked to rusted bolts loose enough to hit with penetrating oil, and they broke loose.

This tool was very good for what it was intended.

this is a heavy durable punch that i believe will be the last punch i will ever need to buy

The center punch work very well for what I have used for. Softer metals such as brass I didnt have to strike all that hard to make a nice dimple. If I had to say anything negative about it. Is that it might be to big/bulky if you want to center punch the end of a 1/4 inch rod. Otherwise it worked fine

I just got these, three of them because I have them in different tool kits in different places. I have not used them yet, so maybe premature to review. THey do seem like a good quality steel alloy for the purpose BUT as others have mentioned, the final grind or hone of the point is lacking. Of the three I got, only one actually has a straight grind face with an actual point. The other two have a bit of a round to the grind face and the tip is not what I would expect to get a good sharp indent. I will have to take them to the grinder and see what I can get out of them without excess heat and loss of temper. For the price, I think they are good. If these fail me like the other inexpensive ones I have used, it will just be time to pony up and get the Tekton or the Starrett ones and these will get relegated to masonry work or something other than more precise metal work. They are definitely nice chunky things and there is plenty of material to work with.

This tool works great

item cant be rated until it is used daily for a few months. 10/23/22. Good product. Sold as center punch staking tool. Should provide staking angle.

Works as expected quite solid and reliable

Not that I really care but why does the advertising picture not clearly show the large made in china ? Otherwise an average tool thank you
