Bahco CS300 Combination Square 300mm | Carpenter Measuring Square | Combination square with adjustable depth and integrated scriber

I've been a carpenter for ten years now and a quality, durable combination square is a necessity for my toolbox. The square was packaged in bubble wrap and plenty of it which reduces the chance of damage to the item. The square was then in a card sleeve with bahco logos and descriptions on it. The head of the square is made from cast aluminium which is nice and chunky and orange in colour. There is an adjustment screw to control blade depth, a small spirit level and a marking pin that screws into the bottom of the head. The adjustment screw tightens well and moves freely. The spirit level is clearly visible and is accurate enough for what it could be used for. Although I generally do not use the marking pins on combination squares I checked it and is sharp and looks of good quality. The blade fits into the top of the head and is clearly marked in millimetres and inches, this also moves freely and works well. This square is good quality and at a low price will be a great addition to my tools to do the job I do well. Really impressed with it.

Reviewed Jan 2021: Had this for a while now, but really made use of it when I was lining our garden shed with plywood, which meant fiddly measuring around windows, door, power sockets and so on. This was so useful for marking up where to cut, and giving me confident that it's accurate (even with wood). Its one of those tools that you know has quality when you pick it up, it has some weight and sturdiness to it. Hopefully lasts a lifetime, and I never have to buy another one again, its one of those 'get what you pay for 'tools

great squares - i now have a few of these in different sizes

arrived quickly, well packaged. this item - the rule, locking thread, spring, moving mechanism with level - is made of reasonably sturdy steel, with aliminium screw knob. The slide is smooth enough to function. the locking action is sturdy and looks like it will hold. if it doesn't, you will hear about it. the accuracy is quite close, a fraction of a millimetre off. it will be fine for everyone in DIY except those whose work requires absolute accuracy. the numbers are both etched and painted, so should last. the level works fine. bahco loses a point because the edges of the item are sharp enough to injure if handled incautiously - clearly no edge buffing, a cheap cost cutter in manufacturing - and the scriber did in fact draw blood when accidently dropped point first onto my thumb. tack a bit of sandpaper to a flat surface and -briefly!- run the edges of the square's rule over it to buff off the manufacturing burrage, and this tool should comfortably handle a lifetime's use.

Good and good price

All good as expected

Ive put off buying one as i thought i didnt need it. But now its all i use. As you can vary the depth i can draw a perp line in shallow spaces like studs and joists. And its all i use. Well worth the money.

Very happy with this combination square upgrade. Nice and stable which helps ensure accurate markings. Great size for site work and would replace if lost. Only minor quibble is mine did not come with the crew is scriber.

Exelent tool, best and fine finishing. Love it

I like Bahco's products, but I received it and checked square, and it's 1 degree out. It's a nice product, but it hasn't been ground to true it up. If you want something for rough layout, it might be okay. If you need an accurate square, unless you have the ability to grind the fence yourself try something else.
