Fiskars Unisex W/2 Tip Sizes Writing Instrument, Ideal for Texture Plates and Embossing Systems, Reduces Finger Strain with Softgrip Barrel

Great tool for securing model canopy mask edges as well as the edges of tape used to mask off other model locations prior to hand or airbrush painting. Yes I probably could achieve the same result with other means but decided to buy this one and done lifetime use easy solution.

Product as described.

I liked it a lot better than the flat plastic knives that came with my other scoring pads.

The tips on mine are just too sharp for the tracing work I'm doing onto fabric, and sometimes a tear in my heavy duty tracing paper will appear. It may not be what you're looking for for this type of work. I haven't had it rip the carbon paper I'm placing under the tracing paper yet, but the extremely minimally 'larger' looking tip is now askew from the pressure I've had to use. I'm not sure you could find another product for this type of thing that would be better than a Fiskars product, but the stylus is not rounded enough in my opinion. Not for delicate work of the type I'm describing. I can see how this would be valuable for transferring designs onto wood, however. For canvas, what with it's texture, I wouldn't try it in a million years. If you're using it to transfer or emboss true cardstock style paper (thick stuff), be careful to avoid tears or holes. Be prepared for a learning curve, that is.

This has two tips. One is smaller for details. However there is not really much difference in the sizes. It feels great in the hand and is fairly easily too use. I use it to trace images onto canvas with transfer paper. It prevents me from damaging my original sketches to bad so I can reuse them. This can also leave groves in soft wood. So if you use a wood burner you can engrave a picture in the wood to go by. Honestly this is a simple and handy tool that can be used for multiple things. I have included some picture showing the two tips, and a size compared to my hand. Hope this helps. Happy Embossing! :)

I had purchased an embossing stencil of tiny baby feet (approx. 1"). I didn't want to emboss it with my Big Shot because I was afraid I wouldn't get enough detail from such a small embossing stencil. I purchased this to use for small embossing projects that I could finish right away while I worked, without having to drag out more equipment. This has worked perfectly for the tiny baby feet, plus other small projects. I keep it next to my Big Shot while I'm cutting so I can emboss small projects right away.

I don’t like using a bone folder to score the paper in the scoreboard. I use this tool to give a more defined score. It fits in my hand just like a pen does.

This stylus is quite handy for some of my finer die cuts. Helps lift the cut-out and doesn't damage it. Has a nice, comfortable feel in your hand when using it too. I would recommend this product.
