COUNTERFEIT - Sold by Amazon - But it works
So, I was sent a counterfeit punch. The seller was Amazon.com, which has never sent me a counterfeit before. The punch is visually similar, but has a couple small differences, most notably the lack of the NEIKO logo on the handle.
That said, it is functional. I tested it on both soft cedar and 1/4" stainless steel and it easily left marks in both. However, the punch did not adjust its impact force when the handle was turned left or right. Due to that, all tests in the picture are done on the highest setting.
These counterfiet products are everywhere on Amazon now, big bummer. I don't think I want to deal with going through a return for this, but I'd much rather have the name and product that I paid for. My time isn't worth wasting on fixing Amazon's mistake for a less than $10 item.
