Some of you might remember a good while back I ordered some tungsten rods hoping they would make good burnishers, but they didn't work out like I was hoping.

I ordered one of these off ebay to try, and this one is a winner.  I even sharpened a couple of pairs of scissors with it after playing with a card scraper, and the scissors came out as good as it gets.

I ordered the 4mm size.  I think the surface texture must be about perfect.
