Compare diamonds points

The diamond tips are unparalleled for working in gray scale on copper plate. Here I will compare my diamond tip with the leading commercial point:

From top to bottom and left to right: advanced classic diamond trade, diamond point from the technical range and  diamond point from the luxury range

There are two recurring problems with the diamond tip: you have to hold it vertically, and the engraved line is obscured by the diamond. The solution comes from the form of diamond.

My tips have a more acute angle at 30 °. This means that the stroke is more open.

My diamond tips are provided with a magnetic wooden closure that actually protects the tip, as well as a felt pouch.
