Ok, this question is directed at Collectors. You know, people that own tools that they never intend to use.
Because if I asked what type is most useful, that would be a bit silly. It depends entirely on the task.
Collectors like, above all, to LOOK at things. Yes, history is important, but tools that please our eyes, may be just as critical.
So, putting usefulness aside, what Calipers do you prefer to own ?
For me, there is no contest.
I like Bow-Leg Spring-Style Outside Calipers best. They just seem to far more graceful and pleasing to my eyes.
What about you ?
PS Not shown, but closely related, are Dividers. I would place Dividers as my second choice as favorites.
