I could not agree more with Joseph D. and Michael C.!! Zero looseness. Remains as solid and tight as the day I bought it over 7 years ago now. Actually thinking about buying another one? Not that I think it will ever break, But I could lose it? If you are on the fence at all about getting one? Just do it!!! It's a great little piece of kit!!...Read More

Should it ever brake or I lose it, I would buy another one straight away. Fantastic tool!

I've gone through quite a few pipe tools. I do like the folding style, as it provides for a longer poker tool and a better knife than the simpler "stalk" type tools. But most of the folding tools are cheaply made and either start to get loose or the tamper foot manages to fall off or be too large. This one is built to last and feels solid. I worried when I ordered it whether the tamper foot would be too large to fit into smaller bowls, but that is not a problem and the tamper foot fits in all my pipes with no problem. The blade is really good, too. It is a straight-edged blade, not the serrated style some tools offer, and it scrapes rims and bowls easily and smoothly. I expect this tool to last forever because it's solid all the way through. Should have gotten this one sooner....Read More
