Tip tools are a repair person's best friend. Most people don't realize just how abrasive (most) chalk is, and that if they chalk properly and regularly, shaping and scuffing your tip is not going to be necessary. I have a friend who chalks somewhat excessively, and can take a tip down to the ferrule in around 6 months without ever touching a tip tool. I've also seen hard ferrules ground to an hourglass shape with chalk. Most people I see using tip tools are greatly and unnecessarily reducing the life of their tips.
A tool is warranted if you're using a non abrasive chalk like Kamui.

for me they came in ahead of time and gave me a valium/demoral cocktail to prep me. Don't remember it hurting much. I don't think they could do much for me as far as the surgery went, my left side is still fairly useless.

Hi Kenny,

If it’s the one with mother of pearl/Abalone in the butt it’s not the one I am after. believe it’s DAK that has one. I am after the one with ivory in the butt cap.

Thanks,
Harry

Collecting because you love something is very different than collecting to try not to lose money.
