Positives: Priced affordably enough that even a casual DIYer should get one. The nail set does a decent job setting small nails and staying on the head. The hinge pin driver also does a pretty good job of knocking the door hinge pins loose. This is a well priced and functional set for most people’s toolbox. Less positive/things to consider:I also own a nail set/hinge pin driver made by Ares. There is a clear difference in the two sets. Aside from the slight difference in length, (see second picture) the Ares set feels noticeably heavier. Obviously, in a spring punch set, extra weight is extra force on impact. For most people, probably not a big deal, but if you are doing it all day, one strike is better than two. The slightly longer length also make the Ares a little easier to handle, but again, only significant if you use it a lot. The second thing I was less than thrilled with was the actual design of the grooves. They are milled out straight grooves, which means you are pulling on and sliding a fairly rigid edge when you pull and release against those grooves, they aren’t rounded or smoothed out at all. This makes for a good gripping edge, but it could get rather abrasive in a hurry on your finger pads if you have to use them for an extended period of time. Takeaway: Very decent set for most DIYer toolboxes. Not as heavy or refined as some others (Ares), but at 1/3 the price, they are a much more budget friendly option for most people, and still do the job just fine.

This combo kit is fantastic. As a contractor I’m always looking to innovate or make things easier. I’m constantly testing new products and most fail. But every now and then, something comes along that helps ease some of the pain. Setting nails is never an easy project and can cause wood damage if done wrong, not counting a bruised finger or two. I’ve been using these nail sets now for over 4 months and have to say they will put normal nail sets out of business. These are so convenient and work well on the vast majority of finish nails. As for the hinge pin remover, I’m sure there’s a whole lot of carpenters, handymen, homeowners, maintenance guys and gals who have used every type of tool or nail or screw they can find to get those stubborn hinge pins loose. I’ve only used this hinge pin tool about a dozen times, but it has worked every single time. As a fellow craftsman, I’m giving these 5 stars. They work fantastic and are priced more than fair.

Not to easy to use in tight spots

At first, I thought it was a bit of a gimmick but at the price, I figured Id give it a try. Ive only used it on oak and pine so far. On the oak it leaves a decent mark, on the pine, It really leaves an impression :).

Love them work graat

Last time I had to remove the hinge pins from one of my doors I had to unscrew one of the hinges from the jam to get the pin out. I tried the same pin with this and about 6-7 strikes later it was out! This definitely beats going at it with a hammer and center punch or similar tool, especially for hinges that are in difficult to get to places. I tried the nailset on some 16 and 18 gauge nails and had so-so results. There is no doubt that a hammer and regular nailset is quicker and drives the nail farther, however in places hard to reach with a hammer this could prove invaluable. Besides that, my only real complaint is that the grooves cut into the part you hold onto are kind of sharp dont feel good in the hand during use. Otherwise, theyre worth having in your toolbox.

I ordered this Punch Set with low expectations since it just didnt look like it would have the power to get the job done. I am pleased to report that they do actually work! I was able to remove a stubborn door hinge pin with several cycles of the device without having to resort to a hammer and nail. I also had success with setting a small finishing nail. The ability to punch a drill set point in metal was less successful but it did still make a small indention. If you need a heavy-duty setting tool this may not work for you but for lightweight work its great.

Always good to have a pair of these in your toolbox. They work well for their intended purpose though the impact force is not as strong as I expected it to be. These also have straight ridges, instead of rounded ones, and will start to chafe your fingers if you need to use them for a sustained amount of time. I have a few other name-brand punches that are better but for the overall value, I can’t really complain.

I love these things! No hammer needed, keep it in your apron or pocket, pull it out to set nails quickly without having to carry a hammer on odd jobs. Not having to use a hammer with these is the primary advantage, but also, it is good in a tight or delicate spaces when missing the punch, or misjudging the strength with which to hit the punch could be disastrous. This product will save you from both short-comings. Some contractors think they are silly or a gimmick, but they really do work! You hold one end of the punch directly onto the nail head, pull out the other end then let go; a direct hit every time! Ive used other brands of these before and these seem to be totally up to par with those ones, and maybe even better! These are nickel coated, so I think they are going to resist rust better than the ones Ive used in the past. This set has the ideal array of nose & tip styles to handle most nail setting tasks from start to finish on a house construction site. I really like the straight hinge punch tip, its very multipurpose and can reach deep down to set nails without risk of widening the hole. This is a great set to have on hand, even if you already have traditional nail sets (they each have their advantages)!
