NIUPIKA Agate Burnisher Knife Craft Polishing Tool for Gold and Sliver 5-Pieces

I am using these to transfer laser images to stainless blanks with acetone. My previous attempts at this resulted in around a 20%success rate i tryed wooded craft sticks , card sides ,smooth stones with limeted results. Since I have started using these I'm closer to a 75% success rate. The variable sizes make them perfect for different project sets and they are smooth, even and machined well. The edges are rounded and streight. I find them very useful and exactly as described .

excellent product the grain was in line with the long side of the blade adding to its strength perfect for paper scoring and folding. all pieces arrived intact and well made. all the tips of these folding knifes where perfectly polished to give a very good point.

I do wish some were thinner or thicker to hold, and easier to get into tight spaces, but over all I would buy again.

I’ve been using these for awhile now (primarily on silver bezels) and I love them! They are beautiful, comfortable to use, and do a great job. I’ll admit, I bought them because they look cool and were a great price, but now I’ve pretty much abandoned all my other burnishing tools because these feel less clunky and more precise.

I use these for burnishing gold, silver, and copper leaf. For that, they've been very good. Honestly, there's not much I can find wrong with these, there's several surfaces on each one for burnishing different ways.My only criticism is the "point" part is... Well, it's TOO pointy, to where it's more likely to gouge than burnish (I actually used it for that, to write into dried plaster of Paris). I've got small fiddly gilded areas that need a smaller surface, but the point on these is just too pointy (I would up scratching a bit off, had to re-gild that part).Overall, good value, good for burnishing flatter areas. Might need to look for another one for the little books and crannies, but I'm happy.

I make frames for miniature paintings (generally the size of a dollar bill torn in half) which are AMAZINGLY detailed, so they are viewed, in judging, with a magnifying glass. Whether it's stated in the rules or not, you know the quality of the frame (under a magnifying glass...) will influence the judges so the frames have to be as good as the paintings. I had a huge number of frames to gild and get out the door so I needed a range of burnishers and quick... I got these and a couple more expensive one with handles...the ones with handles were a waste of time and money, I have sandpaper smoother than those....but these little guys were nearly perfect. Got my order done and looking outstanding. My only complaint was that the blunt ends need to be finished as they are not COMPLETELY rounded (they have a little flat spot right at the end) which made burnishing wide areas difficult. Fix that little flaw and they get a perfect rating and SIX stars. If you work on small, detailed projects, get these, you won't be disappointed.

I'm a newbie to gilding gold and silver. My art was on canvas so the burnishers didn't seem to work for me.Almost left a scratch but maybe I was burnishing incorrectly. I ended up using a gloss spray sealer for shine.

We were a little worried about having agate burnishers being shipped to Alaska. The package was shipped great! They bubble wrapped not only the burnishers, but also the whole package itself. They came in perfect condition. There was no breakage, it’s feels great in the hands, and it has a fantastic quality finish on the agate. We are excited to use them in the studio. Thank you for taking the time to package the item neatly and safely. We will be ordering more items from you. Thanks again ☺️
