OG,
While I can make them into good tools, it isn't worth the shipping cost.
Actually, they are pretty good tools except they are extremely thick and the shapes/sweeps are not exceptional.

Don't take that as a recommendation to buy them.

and if you do not want to do that then let me me and I will send you the money and you can send it to me and I WILL SEND IT TO RICK TO BE SHARPENED AND HE CAN SEND IT BACK TO ME. I would gladly pay Rick to sharpen that tol for me
and pay the shipping on it as well.

Harold, if you send that tool to Rick to be reconditioned, you can be sure of getting back a tool that is as sharp and well beveled as is possible! I got a knife from Rick a month or so back and it was so sharp that when I took it out of the sheath, it sliced the air, and that cut is still there. The edges are soooo slick that the air molecules can't even get back together. It's really quite disconcerting, a slice in the air, right in front of my carving bench.

No, super glue didn't work!

Ok Al I was considering sending it to Rick, but now I have no choice. And by the way Rick if I forgot thanks for the offer. Like I said I will get it out right after the holidays. Harold

I thought it was pretty COOL, Dave, for a while. Now I'm trying to figure out how to either heal that slice up, or at the very least, move it off to the side of the shop where I don't have to look at it any more. I'm afraid to check to see what's on the other side...........might be a fraying of the time-space continuum. Geeze, hope it doesn't get any bigger.
