Pros & Cons
Pros
These are 5/5 easy-to-read markings in 8ths all the way to 64ths and sturdy construction with no play. The scale is accurate. The graduations are accurate as well. They are engraved and painted to last a long time and shouldn't wear off.

The slots for the blades are just a hair human too wide
