Tools and Hardware Reviews of Premium Woodworkers Complete 16-Tool Chisel Set - Custom CaseCustomer Review: ven better than we'd expected! Summary: 5 Stars
The tools were full-size, in a very durable roll, with whetstones specific to the shape of the blades. Anyone would be proud to have them, no matter how experienced the carver. I am impressed and relieved that as I start teaching my son and the boy scouts woodcarving they will have everything they need to create precise projects and care for the blades. I won't be having to run out to get another tool in order to complete our woodcarving projects--that is how complete this set was.
Customer Review: Perfect for feathering Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried lots of varying types of tools to add detailed feathering to the birds I carve. These work for me. Just what I needed.
Customer Review: GREAT for THE PRICE Summary: 5 Stars
this item was more than expected. it has large handles and easy to work with.
Customer Review: Ok for beginning carvers Summary: 2 Stars
Ok set so far, but what do you expect for the price? Came exactly as promised and very nice to have a carborundum block and other sharpening stones come with it. Again, those are nice to have but the only problem is that these gouges and chisels need extensive sharpening. I'm going to end up spending hours putting them to the grinder and getting some better angles, then using the stones to get them razor sharp.
UPDATE 10/20/10
At first I gave it 3 stars, but I've moved my review to 2 because I ended up throwing out the gouges but keeping everything else (the sharpening stones). Also when I bought this item it was only hand gouges; there were no palm gouges or what looks like a rasp and maybe a file.
Customer Review: Premium Woodworkers Chisel Set Summary: 2 Stars
If you are doing a job that is very large in size and requires big chunky tools this set might be ok. Also, you have to use a mallet when carving because they are so big and hard to use. They are not for any type of detailed carving and they feel quite cheap in your hand. The rubber on one of the handles was ripped off because it stuck to another chisel. Overall this is a poor example of a woodworking set.
