Review on Lisle 81780 Carbide Scraper Set: Ultimate Tool for Efficient and Precise Scraping by Joshua Coulter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

you scratch. With precision and authority.

I bought it as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. He keeps telling me how much he enjoys using them. He's a carpenter, so he only uses them to scrape dried glue off of things. However, I have a similar tool called The Super Scraper that I have been using for many years. Tungsten edge is ideal for car repair. They make it a lot easier to remove a hardened thermostatic gasket from your pipe socket than using razor blades or anything else you might try. They remove rust film from flat metal surfaces like a hot knife through butter. I even "milled" deformed carburetor parts with it. It will cut right through the aluminum if you are careful and know what you are doing. You can fix things with tools (or you can destroy things if you're a clumsy person). This is great to have in every garage. It's cool that Lyle makes them such a couple.

Pros
  • tools and housewares
Cons
  • boring packaging
