Starrett K53M-350-S Carpenters Try Square for Woodworking – 350mm Metric Set Square

The ruler is stainless steel, and the base is made of aluminium; as a skilled carpenter, this is my go-to tool. I've been purchasing their gadgets since slice bread. This instrument is extremely accurate, and the Starrett brand is well-known for its dependability. Brilliant value; a must-have in your tool collection.The measurement numbers are clearly visible in bold print and will not fade.Definitely recommend

I bought this as my old try square was not entirely square anymore.Firstly let me say that this is a big try square, for the price I was expecting something smaller but you certainly get your moneys worth.Secondly, yes the edges on the ruler can be sharp and pointy, but this isn't a toy it's a piece of equipment so as long as you treat it with due respect there shouldn't be an issue. If you don't like the edges then just file them down a bit.The structure seems to be fine and sturdy with no flex or movement between the two outside edges, it does 90 degree and 45 degree measurements easily.

Quite sharp edges. Sturdy and on the large side, good for larger format tiles and flooring. Haven’t checked it for square but Starrett are usually good.

This square has to be the best value square on Amazon right now. I checked its square when it arrived and it is perfect. The rulers are properly calibrated off the respective inner and outer faces of the stock. The thin metal ruler arm of the square is straight not bent like many squares with long thin metal rulers. It feels very sturdy and I expect it to stay square for a long long time. It is made of good quality steel not aluminium so it will not get dented and bashed easily like the aluminium ones do. The length is very useful for general woodwork and also for checking/setting the squareness of flat pack furniture while assembling it. Highly recommended especially at this price!

Youngster with me when it arrived asked what it was. I told him it was a square. "That's not a square, it's L shaped!". Couldn't really argue with that observation. Go out and play buddy.Look, you can get worse quality for a good bit more than the few quid this cost. Yes, the edges are a little sharper than they need to be. So, a touch of minor sanding takes care of that. Without doing that, it doesn't inhibit the fucntion it was designed for. Still a bit of a bargin to me personally.If you need a straight edge, check. Very little flex, check. If you need imperial measurements or, half mill markings, look elsewhere. If none of that bothers you, and even if it does a tad, at this price I can still only say it is a no brainer, particularly if you are already a Prime member.

Checked for square using a digital gauge... 90; or possibly 90.1..... close enough for my woodworking capability :)Seems very sturdy but edges and particularly corners of the handle do need softening off for comfort when using, as others have observed. I used a bit of emery paper to do that; - took all of 2 minutes.Very, very good value. I assume this is made in China. Much of the chinese stuff on Amazon is total rubbish but this square is solidly built and fit for purpose.

An ideal carpenters square for baking straight cuts in wood.I've already used this more than I thought I would and it's been spot on every time. For cutting short pieces of wood to marking out longer cuts it's been perfect. For short lengths of mood I can even use it to guide my jigsaw or circular saw. For the price you couldn't ask for better.

Its ok for what is but its not quite square at 89.9 degrees and for a starret id of expected it to be but its close enough for what I intend to use it for

The cast aluminum handle feels robust in the hand, and the thick, black anodized blade features crisp, highly legible laser-etched metric graduations. It delivers reliable 90 grades accuracy straight out of the box, making it an indispensable, durable tool for both fine woodworking and general construction. Highly recommended.

Stevige en degelijke winkelhaak.

It's a square and it is square - made by a reputable brand. Nothing more to say.

Muy buena y realmente está recta, muy útil, gracias

É um quadro leve e de pequenas dimensões (300 MM X 125 MM). É um quadro da marca americana conceituada, Starrett, mas aceitáveis materiais, acabamentos e precisam de medição, está um pouco longe da qualidade elevada que a marca starrett nos habituou. Para os trabalhos simples de Bricolage do dia-a-dia, serve muito bem. tem a régua em aço e o punho em plástico rígido. O seu grande trunfo é o preço, €5,65 na Amazo.es (mas atenção, porque este produto é fabricado na China). Por essa relação preço qualidade é que dou cinco estrelas, porque se não fosse isso, deveria 3,5 estrelas.
