Default stupid safety rulers...

I wanted to buy a replacement 12" stainless steel ruler. Shopped all around
town. Apparently almost all now have rounded corners, presumably to keep
us
from hurting ourselves, so the graduations don't go all the way to the
end.
So you can't use them easily to make inside measurements...
So I can be trusted with a chain saw, a nail gun, a milling machine, etc.,
but I need to be protected from sharp corners on my RULER ???????????

(It does look like Grizzly has one that it as at least squared off at one
end with graduations clear to that end.)





Have you seen these?
