Smile Hi Everyone
I bought the whittler's kit, it contains a flexcut roughing knife and a flexcut detail knife, i also bought a finger guard and thumb guard. I can't wait to get it in a couple weeks. The website i bought this items from is http://Traditionalwoodworker.com. I am going to my first woodcarvers meeting tomorrow, i am excited and nervous but it will be good meeting different carvers.

welcome, That first meeting is a little nerve racking, but after a few minutes you'll be with people who seem like old friends. Wood carvers are some of the most down to earth people I have ever met, you won't be a stranger very long.
Good luck
