These 2" long stainless steel t-pins are substantial. They measured a good 1.0 mm in diameter compared to a common sewing straight pin at only 0.5 mm diameter. So, at about twice the diameter of a sewing pin, these are hefty. I would not use them for fragile or dainty projects, but having them for the projects requiring heavy duty pins is great.Since they are stainless, magnetic pin-gadgets will not attract them. The non-rusting advantage of stainless steel is a huge plus with pins that may be left in projects or items that risk being left pinned for extended periods of time. On several occasions I have encountered textiles with stains and large holes from pins or staples left to rust away in them, simply from humidity in the air. These pins should bypass that issue. The tips of the pins could be refined a little, but for coarse applications they are just fine. At $3.39 for 60, I am pleased with the value. I counted 63 pins, so that was a nice surprise.

These are good quality pins but quite thick, and thus not great for sewing with most fabrics. In addition, since they are not magnetic, they won’t work with many magnetic pin cushions. The case is good quality though and they are quite affordable.

I am new to crocheting and am working on a granny square afghan. This was my first time blocking (so don't judge me!). These pins worked great! The box is double-locked to prevent accidental opening. The pins are very sturdy and because they are stainless steel they shouldn't rust. I used a foam board for a base and they held well. You can see before and after results of my squares- this is the effect I hoped for.

60PCS T-Pins 2 Inch with Safe Plastic Box, Rust-Resistant Stainless Steel T-Shaped Pins for Knitting, Sewing, Wig Making, Blocking Crochet & Office Use – Premium Craft Tools from FlickzoFirst impressions: Nice plastic box full of pins in the shape of a t. The pins are sturdy and aren’t easily bent. They are very sharp.Installation/setup: Use to secure your art works, macrame, stained glass, etc. for continued work.Final thoughts: I have used pins like these for years with macrame so when I began making stained glass suncatchers, they immediately came to mind. I use a piece of board called Homasote which allows the pins to be placed in like a cork board. The board is reusable, and also allows for soldering without catching fire. The pins hold well and I’m very happy with them.⭐️1 star - I don't recommend it at all, poor quality.⭐️⭐️ 2 stars - I don't recommend it, it has multiple faults, or a very high price.⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 stars - It's passable, It has some faults but the quality is ok for what it is.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars - Product quite acceptable, it does what it promises.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars - Product that I totally recommend.

Perfect size and packaging for T pins. I am a crafter who has never blocked any of my creations. However I’m working on a knit sweater for the first time and once it’s done this has to be blocked correctly or it will look wonky. I don’t see any reason why these won’t work perfectly for my needs.Shipping was extremely quick and the box they come in is hard plastic so they should last a long time. They are also stainless steel which means they will not rust while wet blocking any yarn crafts or anything else.The price is reasonable, so yes by these if you need them!

This review is for Flickzo 60PCS T-Pins 2 Inch with Safe Plastic Box, Rust-Resistant Stainless Steel T-Shaped Pins for Knitting, Sewing, Wig Making, Blocking Crochet & Office Use – Premium Craft Tools from Flickzo. Box says: stainless steel, low magnetic, rust-resistant, 2", 60 pcs, made in China. These metal T-pins measure 2" long x 1/2" wide at the T and come in a plastic storage box. The pins are typical thicker, durable pins that are not completely smooth/sharp at the tip and the pin catches a bit when inserted into fabric (several pins were tested on several fabrics). This may cause snagging or damage to certain types of fabric. Each pin could be filed or honed at the tip to make it smoother. The storage box is grey translucent plastic with a flip up closure on the side that is fairly hard to open. The box also has a flip-up tab with a hole in it, on the end of the box; this could be used to hang the box on a pegboard hook (in the home as well as in retail store). The tab clips securely into place when not in use. These pins are useful for working with thicker fabrics or upholstery.

The Flickzo 60PCS T-Pins 2 Inch with Safe Plastic Box are larger and thicker than other T-pins I have. I use T-pins for blocking knits and the size and strength of these pins is a plus for that. They are made from stainless steel that is not attracted by a magnet. That generally indicates a greater resistance to rust but it means magnetic pincushions don't work with these pins. The plastic box is sturdy with a strong clasp. No worries about these fairly heavy pins getting loose unexpectedly.
