Great set of wood carving knives

I bought a set of these knives to work on my woodworking project. I have an old set of chisels but I wanted to try something for hand carving. The blades are very sharp and the wooden handle feels light and nimble in my hands. Knives easily cut wood. The range of sizes is excellent for everything from broad strokes to fine details. A set of woodcarving knives was packed in a beautiful box. I bought it for personal use but it would also look great as a gift.

Pros
  • Wood carving tools
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Better than more expensive tools

***Updated 08/15/2021*** I had to deduct a few stars for a reason but that is the main reason. Blades don't hold sharpening. They are very sharp and work great, but fade very quickly. I bought this set to create border borders before hatching. The chisel was perfect for removing the factory texture enough that I didn't have to sand it down with a dremel. They are very sharp and cut the polymer easily like a hot knife through butter. Used no force and could move slowly so my borders were…

Sharp Japanese Carving Knife Set

The highlight of a carving knife is its cutting quality, but these in particular allow me to control my desire to cut and do it with ease. Definitely better than what I remember as a student. I remember cutting myself at school with a not-so-sharp carving knife, using force I shouldn't have used, which eventually resulted in injury. In the knowledge that I can work with these high-quality carving knives without much effort. Strengthen and assure me that I can use the set safely. I highly…

Solid feel, sharp and reliable. The blade does not become blunt!

Let me start by saying these knives are awesome! Extremely sharp, durable and affordable. I bought this because I was testing my woodworking skills and needed something I could use for fine detail work. I've searched a lot and decided to try these. I have used many Japanese hand tools in the past so I expected to get a quality tool at a good price. However, I did not expect how well processed these knives are. I've used them on hardwoods (ash, maple and walnut) and so far they cut smoothly and…
