Greater than one weekUpdate 8/21/17- Added a star and wanted to comment on the great customer service. After seeing my original review seller sent another set for my review which was much better. Still not the best you can buy but very useable for the price paid and much cheaper many others out there. Thanks Rettun for the extra effort. --- end update --- I really dont understand all the rave reviews on these as I make quite a few purchases on Amazon and usually from studying reviews I always come out on top and getting what I expected. These arent that impressive to me... almost all of them are bent right out of the package new. Maybe my expectations are off for a $12 set of Chinese import punches. They actually look pretty decent and the roll pouch is nice enough but I think I pulled almost every one of them out and rolled them on a flat table to check how true they were. I could see a wobble (some bigger than others) in all of them. Many of them are crooked enough you can see theyre bent before rolling them. Theyre import cheap -but the reviews were so good? I came back to see if maybe I miss read or miss ordered? No, all the 5 star reviews are here. Will they still do ok slightly bent?...or should I send them back? Im going to guess theyll get the job done for an occasional DIY home gunsmith for a cheap enough price but theres no way they can be 5 stars, somethings wrong here. If your an occasional user like me give them a shot for $12, might be all you should be spending for one or two builds and a little mantinance. If your a real gunsmith, training and studying to be one or will use these enough to warrant spending more... Id say keep looking.

> 3 dayThey are great punches with sturdy plastic covers at the end for protection of metal surfaces. I did bend a punch but the company send out a replacement in a no-hassle and timely manner. Solid product.

> 3 dayI bought these to perform maintenance on an inherited pistol a few months ago and time slipped by before I remembered to do so. Now that I have, I can say that these are very good for the price. They worked just fine and I was able to completely take down the pistol with them. My two complaints are not about the punches themselves but the Bonus storage pouch. The first issue is the closure which uses a ribbon sewn to the border stitching to tie closed. It would have been better if a hook and loop fastener had been used as the ribbon doesnt really stay tied. The second issue is the openings for the individual punches are very tight and catch on the punches requiring several attempts to put the punch away. Some elastic could have been used to make that a little easier.
