Tweezer set
This set is a great value for the price. I find myself using the sharper ones more than the flat ones but each pair of tweezers in this set has its own advantages depending on the situation. The quality is excellent and the lifetime guarantee (including free sharpening) makes this brand the only way to go.

I have tweezing OCD ( grin) and refuse to use anything else
I kid you not I have tweezers in my bathroom purse and at work. It makes me crazy for some reason to find a hair that needs plucking and I keep my eyebrows groomed obsessively. Many years ago I kept reading about tweezerman in beauty magazines when they first came out. Unlike other tweezers they are hand sharpened and I can attest to the fact that that apparently makes a huge difference. Where other tweezers allow the thinner or smaller hairs to slip through tweezerman tweezers grip em all. Also if they ever get dull you can send them to the company and they will hand grind them again. However in spite of me using them for things they aren't made for like poking holes in something they never dull
I have tried other brands shaped the same and threw them out.
Also I don't like the pointed end tweezerman. I only like the slanted tip as the best grip
whenever you see an article about the best beauty tools this is always the only tweezer I ever see mentioned

best tweezers every
i absolutely love these tweezers. they are extremely sharp which allows for precision removal of splinters and ingrown hairs. i also use it for eyebrow grooming because the fine point allows for single lash removal. (helps prevent pulling out too many at a time and creating a disaster) I have just ordered my third pair of these tweezers because I can't live without them!
as stated below the tweezers do not come with instructions. Thank goodness my education prepared me for the complicated task of using this tool... If you don't know how to use tweezers you should probably stay away from this product. it is extremely sharp!

not as good as I had hoped for the cost
I was disappointed with the effectiveness of these. the smaller version worked better. I have fine hard and these miss some. I will followup with a replacement and hope for the best.

I Can't Recommend These Enough!!!
I can honestly say that these are the only tweezers you will ever need. I have 900 other pairs and when I misplace these my eyes well up with tears at the thought of losing them. I do A LOT of eyebrow grooming on myself as well as many others. These tweezers are WONDERFUL and VERY precise. I can reach microscopic hairs that you can only see in a 10X lighted and magnified mirror with these babies.
These tweezers are also fantastic for splinters ingrown hairs and tackling zits (which you shouldn't be doing . . . tsk tsk).
Be careful! They're sharp!

Get some slant-tweezers and these for the perfect pair
The tips of these things are like SHARP needles and they are perfect for "isolating ingrown hairs" beneath the skin. Like the other reviewer I found it difficult at times to pluck hairs using the needle-like tip of the tool.
The trick is to use the flat area of the tweezer located just "before" the tips are tapered into points; from there you can grip the hair well enough to pluck it. It's enough of a hassle that I ordered a pair of Tweezerman's slanted-cut tweezers to do the "heavy lifting" plucking and will use these for the precision work (that is isolating the hair or splinter or bullet fragment.)
Make certain you keep the clear-plastic tube that covers the tips in the packaging. You will need something to keep from poking things as you retreive or sanitize them. I skewered the tube the first time I tried to use it to cover the tips so I need to find some kind of alternative sheath for travel.
Anyway I've had them almost a month and I'm very impressed at how well they hold their edge. The packaging material promises Tweezerman will gladly grind (re-sharpen) the tips for free -- you only pay postage. They're replace a broken or "soiled" tool for a flat $5 + postage FWIW.

A great tool!
I was hesitant to buy this at first but I'm so glad I did. It is so easy to use and my face doesn't become irritated like it did when i used my fingers. It gets all the junk out with very little pressure most of the time. And if you have to press a little harder your face wont look busted up! This actually helps the blemish go away faster after it's been taken care of and after I use it it's not obvious that I just popped one.
