Happy New Year! It looks like the tip has a point vs. flat bottom, true? Thanks!

they have the square tip that goes up on an angle so if you hold it one way it can be a flat larger surface or at the top end it is a tip to do the smaller scratches.

the tip is 'V' shaped with a slanted flat bottom that tapers to a point so it can be used for pinpoint or broad coverage.

Yes this item has a tapered end that I found helpful doing detail work. Hope that helps.

It is not a rounded tip. The sides are flat with a tip at the edge, if that makes sense!

It seemed to be a little coarser than 180 when I got mine. This tip seemed to last longer too.

My husband had the same issue and it works great for him! I use a small tip and it has really helped.

My wife is using it for weeks and has no problem at all. Easy to handle and no overheating. If you are having troubles with the tip, it could be the temperature control set too high or quality control failed. Good luck.

I would say its nice pointed tip. It's very quiet and stops sharpening when the light goes on.

There is no tip but the hook is smooth. I have had no problems whatsoever with them.

I can't say if this will be your experience, but I recently ordered this item and received the straight tip. It didn't occur to me until I plugged it in just how accustomed I'd been to having the 90-degree tip that was on my OEM charger. But honestly, after a couple of days, it no longer mattered to me. This has been working great.

The tip is like the picture here: http://www.tequipment.net/Weller7135N.html?Source=Google&gclid;=CJXioc2m1boCFcw7MgodkVoAgQ

Sorry to take so long to respond on vacation. Does not appear to have a spiked tip under the rubber tip. Could not remove rubber tip to make sure.

Our tip was also at an angle. It is supposed to make it easier to get the balloon on it. Ours also had a very sharp edge which tended to rupture the neck of the balloon. We filed it down just a bit and it worked fine.

The tip provided is not for fine work. BUT the plastic tip that it comes with is interchangeable with any standard one. So you can put a tip on that is perfect for fine details.

Mine was a flat bottom. However, I would suggest calling the Wok Shop - they are super nice and really helpful!

Hi. Yes you can use the standard tips. I have not had any issues with them.

Different shades of the same. Metalic and such. Tip is realy wide best for tablets.

Mine is pointed, just as it appears in the picture. Very solid, have not actually put it to the "test", but I am satisfied with it. I would contact the manufacturer, sounds like a defect to me.

The tip is somewhat thin and flexible, so we don't use this spatula so much for cooking, but rather for scraping bowls, etc. Hope this helps you.

The top side (cutting surface) is flat BUT it has the slightest "lip" running around the edge. The surface is textured. The bottom side has little round feet.
