How much can I love a ruler? Apparently quite a lot! The steel is .050" thick, which is thicker than the .035" of the 6" General #676 I have on my desk and significantly thicker than the .018" of the General 616 I have in my caliper case. The markings are engraved so they don't rub off. I have nothing to verify accuracy. It is useful to have a metric scale on one side and inches on the other. The downside to this is that the metric side is 1mm on one side and 1/2mm on the other and the inch side is 1/32" and 1/64" which is sometimes visually distracting for rougher measurements. I would compare this to the General 676 which is 1/8", 1/16", 1/32" and 1/64". However, having a metric side more than makes up for it for me. But really, he's looking for something he doesn't like about this line. It is very nice. In fact, I love it so much I'm going to buy 3 more to wear stockings, so maybe people will keep their hands off me!
