They are 100% better than the current poor quality bone versions normally available. They have the normal point at one end & a square tapered end at the other making them ideal for the bookbinding industry as well as leathergoods. With their non stick qualities they are easier to keep clean as well as having a better slip quality which is ideal for folding & rubbing down turnovers without risk of marking delicate leathers.
