You are excellent. I used one to easily remove laptop keys from a MacBook Pro Retina. The needles are sharp and hard but won't damage the keyboard. The flat end comes to a good edge and looks like I could sharpen it slightly if needed. I will be able to use them a lot more at home and in my workshop. This is a top quality product and I understand it is the brand used by Apple. For the price it makes no sense to take cheaper defective ones.
