Review on 📏 Dritz Wooden Yardstick Ruler with Metal Tips - 1/4 x 36-Inch - Natural by Barbara Simmons

I received this criterion with a metal tip and expected it to have a metal edge on one side to make it easier to draw a line on that side. Every other metal tipped gauge I've seen has this feature. This is the whole purpose of the metal on the gauge. So that you have a nice beveled edge to draw a line on. Not this one. no Small pieces of metal are bent at each end of this ruler. Why? I can't imagine. This adds nothing to the integrity or structure of the criterion. It doesn't add any functionality. It doesn't even get to the end. Where for some unknown reason I want to draw a line the width of a folding rule, although it won't be smooth because there is a ledge from which a metal fishing rod is falling. As far as I can tell, the "metal tip" actually makes them less usable for that reason. It is made of very light wood. I'm used to a criterium with a little heavier weight, but lighter may be lighter for some. Mine isn't kinked like someone else has complained. At least as far as I can tell. I haven't tested the accuracy on another gauge, but it looks correct. One side has inches on one edge and centimeters on the other. On the other side, inches are marked on one edge and eighths of yards on the other edge, which might come in handy. In fact, I'd be happy if this thing had a real metal tip on the rim. I expected more from a well-known company like Dritz. If anyone knows of a reason why metal tips over the ends in a way that makes it more useful for a task, please comment and let me know. If I were to order a product that was intended for a different purpose, it would at least make sense to me. I can't think of a single scenario where this product makes any sense at all.
