Value priced, meets or exceeds description, works as advertised and is a value.
I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

OK
Works Ok, but I had to shim mine in the lathe in order to get the cutter on the lathe center line. The blade is firmly held, but the design holds the blade at the top of the holder, so it’s hard to get the cutting edge on the lathe center line. I got mine to work by shimming the back of the parting tool holder at the rear of the tool post holder, so the parting tool was tipped down slightly. Without this, the tool chatters horribly.

Great cut off tool for light material

Sharpen the blade before using it, looked ok but needed more relif angle.
works good for cutting cooling fins and parting off. Still have not broken a blade in aluminum and I am fairly aggressive with the feeds.

Not impressed
The area of the holder between the clamp and support was not flat with the rest of the holder. The machining of this area was not even smooth originally. This means that the cutting blade would not lie flat to the holder (vertical on the lathe).I was able to take a triangular needle file and smooth it out pretty well, and was able to make it work.Additionally, the clamping piece was not well made - it worked without modification but was obviously not shaped 100% properly.There was no tool for the clamp screw. This is not critical, but most of the lathe tools I have bought do come with one. I only mention this because the add included it "COMPLETE WITH ALAN KEY TO LOCK".

Ummmmmmm!
It never cut anything that I've tried to use this on. It just shatters the blade.The cutters are far to narrow and far to brittle.
