VERDICT: Worth the money and I'm a happy customer. If you're reading reviews because you're unsure, I recommend adding them to your cart. Pros: These guys are perfect for my main purpose; Scoring They're thick enough to apply some pressure for a clean score, but nice and straight for an accurate score. The lines are crisp and clear, making them easy to measure if you can't get to them with a caliper. Cons: I took off a star because they don't necessarily start at a real zero. As an example, I have included photos of the 6" and 8" models. The six is 4,000, which is within tolerance for most light-to-moderate applications. An eight is very different from zero and I might brush it up one day. Finally, the holes in the sleeves are positioned so that the rules fall out when hung. Although I really don't care.
