    Unless you want text where the bottom of the cut is rounded.
    This is the best I've found for text, they also do a 60deg cutter if you want deeper or finer cuts. They come to a fine point for the smallest text. http://www.wealdentool.com/acatalog/...egree_718.html

    They would do, but for rough cuts I use these cheaper ones; http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Powe...+x+12mm/p67412
    Then for finishing use something better from Wealden or Axminster.
