These tools are very good on arrival

These tools are very good on arrival. They're sharp enough to handle any task with ease and the grip is amazing, and the blades are rubber coated so you can protect your sharp blade from accidental damage. I used these tools to carve a copy of my Chaos Eater Sword and it was a 4 foot pine sword with some amazing engravings but some of the chisels broke the tiny tips of their sharp bevel and when that happens , you can no longer conveniently clean the wood chips like before. The rounded bevels became dull at first, maybe because I used them a lot. I then switched to straight and fine tuned the threads and if the blades were as sharp as before I would give them 5 stars without hesitation. So when you buy these chisels, make sure you have the right sharpening and sharpening equipment. Material because I was trying to sharpen them on a 400 grid wet stone and although I got some sharpness they weren't as sharp as they were originally. I think I should try sharpening 4000 and 8000 mesh stones and diamond stones are the best I've heard of. Either way, if you can handle sharpening these little ones are pretty cool. And I've also included a photo of the sword I carved using these tools.
