A Weller or Hakko is good. If you do a variety of small gauge and larger discrete car wiring a soldering iron with variable wattage is best. If simpler electric type portability is key then a quality 40 watt minimum to 60 watt is good. The ceramic heating tip often are more efficient vs the...

Middle and Upper end Schlage is my pick. By the way, Baldwin in now owned by Kwikset, still okay but of the three I prefer finish, construction and action of Schlage. Defiant is less quality than I like.

File that surface down a bit and you have a tool you can use with flattening aluminum of any other need. USE It.. Looks really great and I can appreciate marks of a great life as well. Put your own marks of hard service on it. That's the great thing about "tools" in good working condition- they...
