These punches are great - the flat ends make it easy to poke cut nails that haven't fully penetrated the nail gun. My only complaint is that you have to unroll the roll of fabric they are stored in and tie two pieces of string together. No matter how hard I try, there's no way I can tie it tight enough so that the bangs won't fall out if you accidentally flip them upside down. So a little frustrating, but no big deal. Good knurling on the handles, continuous strokes.
