Default Excellent Service

The title says it all!!! Orderd Wed, tools shiped Friday and I received the tools today. Sharp tools to say the least.
Yep, none other than Our famous Rick and Theresa Ferry of little Shavers.
Now I have delt with other Carving supply houses and none beats The Ferry's service and attitude, and helpfullness. My hat is off to these two in salute.

Rick and Theresa, EXCELLENT sevice and a pleasure to do business with you both.
Thank you.

The timing of your post could not be better. I was contemplating ordering Rick's beginner's set this week, but then saw a (simpler) set at the Ace hardware in town yesterday and began to wonder if I should wait for a shipment or go for the "instant gratification."

You helped me make up my mind Ken! Thanks!

Anita, I know Rick since he started his buisness & you will never be sorry for buying anything from him. If a tool needs sharpening & you can't get it right, send it to him & he will sharpen it for you.

Can't agree more with what these gentlmen has said. I haven'yt met Rick or Theresa but from my dealings with them, They are the best when it come to customer satisfaction. They go out of their way to be helpfull.
Give then a call and you will not be sorry for waiting the extra couple of days.
I ordered some tools for myselfI did not have and a Denny Knife( I have a couple)for my Granddaughter and some Bass eggs and totally satisfied with the sharpness of the tools and the quality of the eggs.

Ditto, Little Shavers are the best not only do I buy tools from them but ship my best chisels from Canada to Rick to sharpen from time to time. Nothing but the best of service from Rick and Theresa you can never go wrong dealing with them.

Just for fun, when I get my set from Rick, I will post pics of it next to pics of the tools I used to carve my elephant. That ought to be good for a few chuckles as well as a plug for good carving tools (and Little Shavers might I add)!

Anita,
The set from Little Shavers is great for begiiners like us. The tools come ready to use and you get the glove and thumb guard--something I might not have remembered to buy otherwise. You just can't beat the price for the quality received.
