Been doing a fair bit of threading with dies for kitless pens lately. One of the operations is cutting a recess at end of the thread next to the shoulder.
I was using a 3/32" (2.38mm) thick parting tool for this, but it really was a bit on the thick side and looked a little too wide for the amount of thread on most pens.
Whilst browsing through Ebay (as you do) I came across a 1/16" (1.6mm) thick parting tool complete with holder.

It arrived on Friday and I have been using it today and it certainly makes a big difference.
