These have been great on aluminum blanks so far. I barely have to tap at all to get an imprint. On that note, they also work well on pewter without issue. You really don't need a hard strike. With bronze and brass, as well as pennies, I do need to strike a bit harder with my 2 lb hammer, but only marginally so. I did attempt to practice on 26 gauge steel, but without much luck. It was hardware store quality, though, so likely hardened. I haven't had a chance to test on jewelry 304 or 316 stainless. I imagine it would work, but need a heavy strike and possibly damage stamps over time. Overall, good stamps and I can tell what each says.
I'm not super fond of the 4 in this set, though, because it's the open style 4 and kind of resembles a Y depending on the metal. I ultimately decided to get the newsprint set just get the 4 out of the set that looks more like a triangle. The Newsprint and Bridgette sets mix well together.
Worked perfectly! I originally purchased stamps from a hardware store and they didn't work! I decided to shell out the money and I am very happy I did. My project came out beautifully. I was able to stamp a penny and it look as though a professional did it.
I bought these for making my own dog tags. They work really well! The one thing I didn't like is that there isn't any indicator of which stamp is which and whether its right side up or not. So you have to look at the stamp end first then flip it down and hope that you don't get mixed up! So far I haven't but it is a little bit of a pain.
Once I learn how to do metal stamping correctly these are a great product.

Came v ery fast and I was very happy!
This is perfect! I just wish I had a scale of the numbers, but that's on me. I love it and I should have gotten an Alpha-Numeric version.
No complaints about this product...a sound investment
Quality as expected
The numbers are great! Just what I wanted!
