    Those are nice Mark. I like the shape of the handles. Have fun marking and cutting

    Those are sharp looking. Why three though? Are they the same or do they have different functions?

    I know the Japanese versions are for left scribes and other for right scribes, and maybe the center one is for amberdexious (sp) scribes

    Isn't it obvious? There's a left-handed one, a right-handed one, and one specially made for people with missing fingers.

    I think Mark nailed this one! I just know that if I only had one, I would be losing it all the time. I can never find a pencil!
