Flexcut Carving Tools Craving FR804 Review

I am very happy with these carving tools! I mainly do miniature work. The example shown is just over an inch square. I used V1 to cut out this stamp. Very easy to use. Easy to control lines. I like how it feels in my hand. I used the Speedball tools but I think the Flexicut tools are better.

I use hardwood now, and pushing a blunt point into hardwood usually results in injury. They are so small that the regular stones I have to sharpen are too big and/or not rounded. I bought something to help sharpen these little tools, but it turned out to be nothing more than

Until this recent purchase I liked the Flexcut tools. In my opinion the quality control of the production has gone down. I explain: There are four tools in this micro palm set, each with a specific shape, design and purpose. The design and usability of these tools are well thought out. When it comes to trimming and sharpening, however, many wishes remain unfulfilled. The three tools I received have jagged and jagged edges. The tools are certainly sharp and polished, but the sculpted edges are…
