I just recieved a sales brochure from
Carve4less
P.O.Box 3575
Estes Park, CO 80517
www.carve4less.com
They have a overstock/closeout sale. The tools are made in the U.S. by Sculpture House, founded in 1883. Grade 1095C high carbon steel tempered to .59 - .63 Rockwell. The tools seem to be about half price of other tools. I was thinking of picking up some of the specialty gouges, short bents, fishtails, etc. These are 9 to 11 inch tools with what appears to be octagonal handles. Has anyone used these tools ?? Can anyone vouch for thier quality. I presently use mostlyt Stubai and Flex Cut. If thier any good, some of the carving folks might like to pick some up on the cheap.
Be Barkin at ya soon
