I bought two USSR straight edges. Pretty much junk. My guess is I got rejects. Not even close to being flat.
Are they twice as heavy as they need to be?

I only have good experience of Russian tools. Maybe I've had luck or that there's more Russian stuff. I live close to RussiaI bought two USSR straight edges. Pretty much junk. My guess is I got rejects. Not even close to being flat.
They were first in space so I do not think they're making such bad stuff RichardEvery Russian Tool I have seen were well built. I would prefer USA, Swiss or European built tool but if I had a choice between Chinese or Russian I would go Russian every time. I hired a fellow from the Ukraine years ago and he was a Journeyman Scraper over there and he was one of the best hand scrapers I had ever met ever.
