Worst tool everI’ve one for years and you’re absolutely correct, this tool is junk
That's the part that actually works!I like that tool but not that end of it.
nope. the tip burnisher is indeed the cause of scratches on ferrules when grit gets between ferrule and sides of tip burnisher as referenced by several, me included.Come on people.... it's not the inside tip burnisher that scratches the ferrule. It is the sandpaper on the OUTSIDE of the forks that do the scratching when you remove mushrooms (sanding the side of the tip). Like any tool, you need to use it properly.

I’ve own many tools over the years. Even the POS Ultimate tool. I was using a Williard and a tip pik for years. And the last 4 ever replaced them all. I’m using the nickel for my play and jump tips and the quarter for my breaker.
The only problem with the last4ever tool is it’s too damn good. I’m never going to need to replace it.
I don't run the tool across the tip to rough it, as that would indeed take off too much leather. I just roll it, creating micro dimples that work fine to hold chalk. There are some good videos on youtube.Last 4 ever tip tool is great but is very abrasive and rough.
It's basically a file.
Great for shaping but a little too rough for everyday use as far as I'm concerned.
Takes your tip down way too fast.
I still use the good old Willard tip tool for roughing and finishing once it's shaped to my liking.
Takes down way less surface than the lat 4 ever tip tool.
A Willard will do the same but not as abrasive.I don't run the tool across the tip to rough it, as that would indeed take off too much leather. I just roll it, creating micro dimples that work fine to hold chalk. There are some good videos on youtube.
You’re using it way too rough then. I barely take anything off on the tip when I run it through. I run it past the tip every few days. I probably dimple it daily. And burnish it once a week. I’m playing a few hours daily and using a super soft tip.Last 4 ever tip tool is great but is very abrasive and rough.
