## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does it mean to have an awl carded or non-carded?**
A: It just refers to merchandising - carded means it is attached to a hang tag for resale and non-carded means it is shipped without such retail packaging. Merry Christmas.

**Q: Can this be used on copper?**
A: Its tough enough -

**Q: Is this soft metal or hardened metal?**
A: Hardened metal.

**Q: Can you use it on paper?**
A: Although this metal scratch awl can easily mark wood and punch through sheet metal, it struggles to even make a dent in an piece of paper. I guess that's why they use pencils and thumbtacks. The thing to realize about this tool is it tapers to a wider shank rather quickly so that it doesn't bend when marking and punching heavier materials. But if you push it through a stack of papers or thick cardboard your hole may become bigger than you like. A leather awl is a slender less unwieldy tool that punchs a more consistent hole through a thick stack.
