Just what I wanted. These are the correct size for using on a A2 card and the piercing gives the edge a nice finish. I had wanted a stitched edge die but I could only find one company that has this size and the price is very high. These will do very nicely for a finished edge.

There are lots of files around.  I need one to put a keen edge on my blades.  So I wanted a fine cut for my loppers, hedge shears and lawn mower.  This Nicholson has a single cut side just right for such finishing.  And 8 inches is a handy in between length.

But I want to put a proper edge on my hoe and spade because it makes quite a difference in ease and speed.  For that I had to push some heavy metal.  Same deal when smoothing out nicks and tears.  The double cut side makes short work of that.  And the forged handle means I do not need fool with fitting one, only to have it go wobbly when I am busy filing.

So if you want just one file in your box, this does much of what you want.

My regular supplier of size 15/0 seed beads did not have any black seed beads in stock at all, in any finish.  I guess they are popular?  Anyway, I needed some size 15/0 black seed beads for a project so I ordered these.

The finish is lovely, just what you see in the picture.  Not super shiny, but not exactly matte either.  The size is uniform, as I have come to expect with Japanese seed beads, though not precisely as uniform as Delicas (but I wanted regular size 15/0 beads and my others were from Toho, so these were just right).  Toho makes a few other bead shapes and sizes in this color (semi-glazed jet black) for coordination, and "opaque frosted jet" from them is also pretty close.

Not much else to say about them.  None were broken.  20 grams is a generous amount, especially of size 15/0.  (My other tubes are 7.5 grams, but then, black is the sort of neutral color you tend to use a lot more of than other colors, and now I have plenty.)

If you are new to beading, you probably don't want to start with size 15/0.  Go with 10/0 or 11/0.  And if you are over 35 and don't have the world's best eyesight (I am 39 and have worn glasses for something like 33 years so I am including myself in this group), you may also want a magnifier and/or light to work with these!  But, I really love the intricate patterns you can make with size 15/0 beads -- using them in a lot of embellishments in right angle weave and loom work, lately -- and there are plenty here to work with.

Exactly what I wanted except I got the wrong size. Was gonna use it for my lip piercing but since I ordered the wrong one I'm using it for my cartilage piercing. Latch is very easy to open and close.  And so far it hasn't opened or fallen out. Very satisfied.

Sturdy with deep, multi-sided dimples that hold the needle well, and even the unbanded top edge is no problem. Comfortable enough that when I get up from the sewing table, I forget I have it on. (I'd prefer it if the bottom lip stuck out less, but surprisingly it hasn't pressed into my ring finger or caused any discomfort.)

These are measured by the diameter of the inside at the base. 13 mm fits me.  (To determine my size, I wrapped a strip of paper around my middle finger just above the top joint, then measured the paper in mm and divided that by 3.14159 (pi)  to get a diameter of 13mm. You could also buy a Lacis thimble gauge, but that costs almost as much as a thimble at the moment. Or make your own by cutting a hole the size you think youll need in a card.)

(ETA -- Was $9.94 when I ordered)

As an earlier reviewer said these are really nice vellum with great prints.  They are the PERFECT size for cardmakers!!  You can either layer them on the top, or cut a window in the card to make a frame for these beautiful little stained glass prints.  I'm using Sakura glaze pens to give them a really transparent look.  They are small, but a really nice value for the price.

I  love the style of these dies, just what I wanted for card making.

Fits on the end of 7/8" sized ribbon perfectly. Loop is big enough to hook charms too. I used 6mm jump rings and it fit through fine. Will order different colors.

These were great for embossing my wedding invitations--just the right size for making the tags and adding a more personal touch to the envelopes.  Great find.  They continued to cling well to the block I had after a few hundred uses, and cleaned up well.

I bought these to use on postcrossing. The design is very nice and the quality of the card is perfect.

I like them, and the embroidered borders make a square or double point fold look sharp. Embroidery wasn't perfect at the corners though, so 4 stars.

I purchased these to match a filigree and diamond heart which my husband got me for Valentine's day several years ago  I had been looking for earrings which would work with it for years, but nothing I bought was quite right.  These turned out to be the perfect match.  The filigree pattern is almost a perfect match for the necklace.

Aside from my personal reasons to like these earrings, they are just pretty earrings.  They are large enough to show up, but they look delicate with the open filigree work.  Although they are inexpensive, they look like decent gold.

Overall, I am very happy with this purchase.

I bought these because I wanted to make one of those necklaces where you have the clasp (I was using a decorative toggle clasp) in front but have a beaded tassel dangling from the circular part of the toggle clasp.  I wanted to hide all the findings, string, and starting point of the tassel inside a finding, but didn't care for any of the solid cones I saw.  I liked the decorative touches on this and the fact that the finish wasn't 100% smooth (less mirror-like that way), so I ordered them.

They are exactly what you see in the picture.  They are not huge but they do hide the parts of my design I was looking to hide, so they work as intended.  (Well, I have only used one so far.  But they are all the same.)

The finish is even and seems to be high quality (none of that iridescence you sometimes see with cheap metal plating).  This particular gold tone looks nice with the colors I was using (dark brown coffee colors and lighter white and cream tones) and with my other findings (obtained from my stash, no idea where they were purchased from).

These sheer drawstring organza bags are the perfect finishing touch to my jewelry creations.  I enjoy creating decorative cards for pairs of earrings and then place them in clear protective bags.  By placing them into these organza bags, they look professional and ready for gift-giving.  I will definitely be purchasing more of these.

These 3 cards are precisely the size of a credit card, so they will fit in your wallet or a cc holder. The surface of each card is matte black, white, or gray...which reduces color casts from reflections. Each card colors is solid through the plastic; the finish won't scratch off. To my eyes, the three shades appear perfectly neutral, but since plastic often yellows with age, I'll keep these away from sunlight and open air. For the price, they look very durable; the lanyard them secure on outdoor shoots. If there's any downside to these cards, it's that the size is a bit too small for getting a positive reading off wider angle lenses. So far in use, these cards have helped me accurately set white balance; I'm a very satisfied buyer. Made in USA.

I like these. I have multiple ear piercings so these were perfect for me. The 2 mm one is really really tiny but i use it for my temple piercing. good product
