Steel Dapping Block and Dapping Punch Set - for Jewelry Making - Metal Forming Die - Shaping Doming Tools

Bought this for my husband and he loves it!

Best of the best.Compared to similar products, the price is good,and we can wait because it is delivered from India.I could feel the warmth of the enclosed handwritten letter after a long time.Thank you.

The product arrived today and I was excited to open it. It was supposed to be a nice set and it came very well packaged with "thank you" letter and included pen as a gift - nice touch.But once I unwrapped the dapping block I was disappointed to see the most of the half spheres were poorly machined which was quite noticeable to the eye and to the touch. The surface was not grinded at all.When I open one punch (43mm) it was polished but not spherical to the touch. I decided not to open any others. It was obvious that the set is shiny poor product. I would rather spend north of $400 for Pepe or Durston sets and not to damage my work.After I ordered the set, I asked Splenor what is hardness of their tools and the answer was 40-55 HRC which is insufficient and generally considered as a mild steel and cube and punches likely will not last long. Only tools hardened to 58-64 HRC are acceptable and considered as hardened tool steel.I paid for this set from India $72 after discounts but I would not keep it even if it was for free. I will return the set. It is disappointing.
