This disc cutter set enables you to punch four distinct strawberry-shaped blanks from soft sheet metal. The set includes a solid steel die block and four corresponding punches, all machined from hardened and tempered carbon tool steel for longevity and a clean cut.
To operate, place your sheet metal (up to 18 gauge) into the die's slot. Insert the desired punch into the matching shape and strike it firmly with a suitable hammer. The four available sizes are 7.22x15.49mm, 9.14x18.65mm, 11.33x22.26mm, and 12.91x24.85mm. Using a cutting lubricant will help preserve the sharpness of the cutting edges.
This tool is well-suited for jewellers producing themed collections, silversmiths creating custom findings, or craftspeople making unique metal embellishments.

Our steel letter, number, and design punches are heat-treated to strike non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine), copper, brass, bronze, aluminium, gold. Striking hardened steel will damage the face. For pewter and very soft alloys, use light strikes.
What size impression do I need?
1–2 mm for ring shanks and small pieces (initials, hallmark-style); 3–4 mm for pendant backs and signed plaques; 5 mm+ for presentation pieces and stamped jewellery components. Bigger is not always better — a clean small mark reads better than a struggle with an oversized one.
What do I strike it with?
A 1–2 lb brass mallet on a polished steel bench block. Do not use a steel hammer — it will deform the punch over time. One firm strike beats two soft ones for a clean impression.
How do I keep the punch sharp?
Polished punches stay sharp for thousands of strikes if you are hitting cleanly on a flat block. If the face starts blurring impressions, polish lightly with 600-grit emery, then a buffing mop on a polishing motor. Replace before the face deforms further.
