I bought a $150 'professional' bone folder that warped after one project with paste.

It's just a fancy piece of plastic now, so what's a truly durable material for a heavy-use folder?

Seriously, $150 for a plastic folder? Ouch. @terry_shah17 has a point about Teflon, but what kind of paste were you using? Some glues can react badly with certain plastics and cause warping.

My old Teflon folder from the craft store is still perfect after like 5 years. Maybe the expensive ones are just overbuilt.

Saw a buddy's fancy folder snap right at the hinge last week. His cheap plastic one from the dollar store is somehow still fine. Makes you wonder.
