Tools and Hardware Reviews of Starrett 13A Double Square With Hardened BladeCustomer Review: Great tool, but you can pay less for same accuracy Summary: 5 Stars
Like others, I too revere the consistent accuracy of my Starrett tools and cannot say anything bad about them, except for the price.
In this particular (and rare) case, you can get the same accuracy with the "Lee-Valley Precision Double square", item number: 24N08.01.
It too is guaranteed to be within + / - .001" per foot. It has the same design and is also made in the USA, but it costs significantly less... seventeen-fifty less... about thirty-two percent. They have a six-inch model for only two dollars more.
Budget minded woodworkers who want this type of square can get the same performance for less from Lee Valley.com. Same feel, same look, same accuracy, same features... fewer ducats.
Description of Starrett 13A Double Square With Hardened BladeStarrett hardened steel squares are recommended when accuracy is required. Beams and chrome plated blades are hardened, ground and lapped to insure parallelism and straightness. Beam is grooved at inner corner for clearance of burr or dirt. Faces of the head are ground square. Tempered steel, machine divided blades in 1/8", 1/6", 1/6", 1/32" and 1/64" divisions.
