I've tried the cosmetic 2nd version of PEC but it's not as legible as the Starrett due to the different finish and doesn't pinch due to the cosmetic 2nd version. It fits perfectly in my front pocket and the slide is perfect. It's expensive, but I don't think the end result will ever be better than my measurements when it comes to layout tools. Even for an amateur, there's no reason to master tools at random unless you're creating projects for luck. Harbor Freight for hammers and wrenches - Mitutoyo and Starrett for calipers and angles respectively. (Starrett stocks many other products cheaply, but not combo squares)
