Metal Safety Rule - 300mm

Good bit of stiff metal this! Nice one our kid. Eeeeeeeeemurrrrrrr!

It is a well tested pattern and steel is better than aluminium for cutting tools

good for metal and woodwork. it can also weigh down paper very effectively helping you measure a lot more easily. It does state that it is a 'rule' , when it is in fact a 'ruler' as the markings do not begin at the end - it has 'rule' printed on it. This is a minor issue and is very un-noticable

Great safety rule keeps your fingers safe . It even has a whole in the end to hang it up.Good price.

Essential when cutting thick card with a craft knife. Take care not to drop it onto a hard surface as its usefulness is reduced if it gets bent ??

Solid and well made. Ideal for crafting

Easy to use with the recessed area to put your fingers, yes it’s quite sharp on the corners but not an issue for me. Markings don’t worry me as I use as a cutting edge more than a rule

Not a full scale on both sides. Imperial side is cut short with 100mm included. I wanted full scale both sides, inches and mm.

For cutting against it works well, easy to hold while keeping one's fingers out of the way. However disappointingly it fails as a measuring device. I work exclusively in metric and given that the rule is sold as a 300mm rule would have expected it to have a mm scale on both or at least one of the edges. However, one of the edges is in inches, which is fair enough, the other is in mm - sortof. Because bizarrely and for some unknown reason the mm scale only extends over 2/3rds of the length of the rule before changing to inches for the remainder of the edge, which makes it useless for measuring more then 200mm and useless for measuring from both ends without having to flip the rule around. At the very least this rather unconventional (and barely usable for metric users) point should have been noted in the description.

La compre por que la de aluminio que usaba y no tendrá mas de seis meses, se desgastaba y dejaba partículas por la mesa. Yo la utilizo para cortar papel sobre cutrting matt, con cutter y ya estaba haciendo forma de tanto pasar la hoja por su borde. Poco a poco se desgastaba. En cambio esta regla es de metal (diría que de acero inox ) pero no estoy seguro. La cuestión es que lleva la numeración marcada en superficie, nada de números pintados, lo notas al pasar el cutter, vas pasando por los números como rascándolos, pero no afecta al corte que siempre sale recto y sin desgaste de la regla en absoluto. Hace 30 cms. , no es mucho pero suficiente para mi. Además con esa forma ondulada y sobreelevada, la sujetas perfectamente sin peligro de corte. Hai sdo un buen cambio.

Regla de acero inoxidable de muy buena calidad viene escalada hasta 20 cm y el resto hasta los 30 en pulgadas. La otra parte entera en pulgadas.

Buena buena

Muy seguro
