3 each of 3 but had stated & pictured 4 each of 3
I received this the other day and it only had 3 each of 3 diff grits and the bag was marked 3 each of 3. I think the supplier changed up the product and hobbylinc was unaware. I did send them an e-mail and will let you know how they respond, good item otherwise. I can now give it 5 stars. HobbyLinc fixed the wording but picture still wrong. They sent me another set to make up for the mistake. You have my business! Product worked as expected and excellent customer service
works great

I am sure glad that I found these pointed sanding sticks. What a great help for getting in to small spaces and a whole lot better than trying to cut a sanding stick to a point. Easy to hold on to and do a great job of sanding and you can get in to some tight places. Only wish there were a few more in the pack. Try them on your next model I think you will like the way they work.
Nice to have at all times
Those sanding needles were absolutely the best while I was preparing my Camaro 1968 before paint. I was able to sand all those small spots and difficult corners with ease. And the other good point with this product is that you can choose between 3 different grit depending on what you're working with. A very good product for us modlers
Not particularly impressed

Maybe i expected more. bought a set of the white ones (medium grit). Like the shape. Like the idea. They just dont seem to be as effective as I anticipated. Would like a little more flexibility out of the tip and just didnt seem to do the job sanding. took sandpaper and glued to small wooden stick to to the job.
Not very well made
By: nimr0d
These sticks are injection-molded plastic coated with abrasive. Because they're injection molded, they have heavy mold seam lines on them, and are not completely round, so the areas with the seams are not usable. Also, the abrasive coating wears off pretty quickly. I don't find them to be very useful.
Good Idea bad implementation
I was really excited for this product for getting into tight places. Well that all ended in disappointment. The needles don't have enough grit on them and as soon as you try to sand something the grit falls off. I gave this product 2 stars because the idea is sound, but the implementation is a failure.
Looks good, poor product
Liked the shape, bought them. All of them seem coarser than what I was expecting but wear very quickly. Worst sanding product I have ever used. I really expected a better product. I can not recommend these.
