Groz01304 4" Brass Caliper

sometimes i need a small measuring tool cause i don't have enough gray hairs in my beard to tell you how thick something is from ten feet away. this little guy will let those of us with degraded or degrading vision more easily tell how thick or thin a particular object with roughly parallel sides might be. it works well for that and the markings seem to line up with my more expensive mitutoyo scales so i trust it well enough for non-critical measurements

I bought this to carry in my pocket. It's a little sharp, but in its case it's fine; I may fabricate a leather or 3D printed case for it to make it easier on the leg.The brass is nice, tho the engravings are kind of hard to read, but I just scribbled on it with a ballpoint pen and then smudged the ink into the hash marks, numbers, and other engravings, and it really pops now. You can see the 100mm and the numbers around the slider pin where I didn't get the ink in as good. Handy little tool. 1mm / 1/16" resolution.

Bought to carry and measure small items in hardware, works well in a small package.

Ever so slightly off on mm scale but still able to read, nicely made. Mainly use it for "in the ballpark" work, checking nut and bolt sizes, very handy

Works as expected, no issues

This caliper is decent. Not great, but not bad. Made in India... at least its not made in China. Made from real brass. Polishes nice with Brasso, though it was finished nicely as it came.It's reasonably accurate. I wouldn't use it for delicate or highly accurate work, but its good enough for some around the house type stuff, like "I wonder what the diameter of this pen is?" or "I wonder how thick the blade is on this pocket knife?".The machining on it is mediocre. It also doesn't move very smoothly, even after a polish with Brasso. But, it was cheap, and looks pretty (if you like the color of brass), and is accurate enough for hobby type stuff, so I don't regret this purchase. Just don't expect a finely made, highly accurate Mitutoyo or Starrett.

Great and very handy. The price is great and fits in your pocket

Great that it has both scales in one. Brass is durable and good looking.
