IRWIN Tools Combination Square, Metal-Body, 6-Inch (1794468), Blue

I've had a couple of the cheap and nasty lightweight versions that quickly go rusty and leave you unable to read the markings. This will last many years if looked after. Accurate with stainless rule. The only problem I had was one corner of the rule had a minimal burr, but easily corrected with a file.

I bought this one and smaller one after going into reviews in great length , brilliant and solid , well worth the money for what I needed

does everything I want it to and accurately. The Combi square also has an excellent feel to it when in use.

Not as accurate as my B grade engineers square out of the box. Had to do a bit of filing to make it just right but I think for woodwork it should be fine without any tweaking.

I now have four combo squares and this is not only the best, but also the squarest of them all

very robust and sturdy square, you will not buy better for the money .

Brilliant

Great square

Esquadro de boa qualidade, preciso e com tamanho ideal.

Me gustó este modelo de Irwin y aunque quizá podría ser más precisa, hace muy bien su trabajo. Esta punta que tienen todas las escuadras de combinación, la que se usa para el marcado, se me hace muy difícil de usar ya que es demasiado delgada y pequeña. Creo que se podría cambiar el diseño de esa pieza por algo un poco más robusto para que resultara útil y práctico llevarlo pegado a la herramienta. Sin embargo es un detalle que se agradece. :)) No vi si en las fotos de la publicación se ve la graduación de la escuadra, y bueno, el caso es que la que recibí tiene por un lado el sistema inglés, las pulgadas, y por el otro tiene ambos, pulgadas y centímetros.

Good

Professional tool to have it I will take all sizes from this

Absolutely love this tool. I also own the 12 inch version and it's equally as good. Accuracy is obviously important with any type of square and I'm very pleased to say this is a winner. It's perfectly square and with only a six inch blade it helps up that anti. Feels solid and well built with quality components compared to anything else out there on the market. Chamfered edges make for a comfortable base but I did use some 600 grit to knock off some of the inside edges around the entire tool. The vial works like a charm and is easy to see and read. Brass knurled nut and pin are a touch of old school class. The blades edges have been slightly rolled which is good for comfort and at first the edges seemed off because of it. Like the corners were rounded but after very close inspection it was just an illusion really. They rolled the very top edge of the corners which make appear not to be a perfect 90 degree angle. Some have said it not square like it is in the picture which may be true but If I received it with sharp edges I would have taken them down anyhow. Now if you flip the blade over it's perfectly square edges. The reason is simple. The press punched out the blade on the side that doesn't look square. This is because it slightly compressed the edges when stamped. This an appearance thing only and does not affect the accuracy when marking. The edge in which you would run a marking knife or pencil mark rides on the flat center and not the ridge so nothing to worry about. All in all this is a wonderful tool I will take good care of as with all my tools no matter the cost.
