I bought this believing in the advertisement of a super strong magnet. Not the case whatsoever. Will barely pick up a few paperclips. As a machinist & mechanic, a scribe with a good magnet is a Godsend. I have been carrying a scribe/magnet for 15+ years daily and the two I have are worn out on the scribe end, but the magnets work great. Was wanting to buy a replacement, but the magnet on this one is a joke, so now I have to carry both around. This one to scribe, the old busted one for the magnet. I am going to try and see if there is a way of putting the scribe of this one into the old one - someday.

I've used it for cleaning metal shaving in the drill holes. The carbide scribe works great, but the magnet came off and stuck in the bottom hole. I only used it very short time by the way. I retrieved the magnet out the hole with the hook. The problem with this pen is the magnet mounted on the aluminum pen housing is not very good bond. It should have a piece of of metal on the bottom of magnet and screw into aluminum pen housing with glue to help secure the connection. I got a home made one like that with bigger magnet and it works great for years!

I like this scribe very much. I like the design, the way the cover stays with it and is easy to place back and forth. I have used this exact scribe for years.
