Your cart is empty.The Starrett 385 Series Steel Straight Edit with Bevel Edge is precision ground and nicely finished to rigid Starrett standards. It is unexcelled for drawing or scribing straight lines and checking surfaces for straightness. Its thickness and design permit it to retain shape and accuracy, but still be portable and easy to handle. The 380 and 385 Series in sizes 900mm (36") and longer is marked with arrows at two suspension points. If the straight edges are brought to the work and used on edge, they should be suspended at these two points to minimize deflection. Most jobs involve the use of straight edges in the flat position - and it is in this position that we check most stringently. 300mm (12").

The image is a lie! This is not made in USA! The finish is awful. What a disappointment from Starret

Starrett is supposed to be the gold standard of straightness, but my 12" straightedge started out perfect and then WARPED lengthwise so badly as to be completely unusable.I live in the California Sierra mountains, and that straightedge was exposed to sub-freezing temperatures in my workshop over several years, but I still cannot believe that those temperatures made that metal warp THAT profoundly. None of my other tools - Lie-Nielsen planes - were affected in the slightest.I have yet to get an answer from Starrett as to how and why this happened, but I now cannot trust Starrett tools to be all that they are sold to be. That is too bad, but honestly this straightedge is warped like a banana. Unbelievable.
