​I make a selection of five top tools - (left to right) countersink, round, cutter, slitter, slot. The handle length is approximately 10 inches. Round and square punches are tapered to 1/4 inch (~6mm) and slot punches tapered to 1/8 inch (~ 3mm). I use 3/4" diameter H13 steel for all my top tools. This steel has the right combination of toughness and hardness at high heat. And, I have some machining done on these tools. This is practical since the properties of this steel that make it so good for hot use also make it very difficult to hand hammer. $35 per
