Flexcut Carving Tools, 5 Piece Craft Carver Set

Nice to have this many tools available in such a small package. Very convenient. The tools are super sharp right out of the box, typical Flexcut quality!!

To be honest I do not use these much as I am more of a knife only whittler. That said I have used the whole set and found them to work great.

These are excellent tools for the money. All but the smallest gouge was razor sharp. You could spend a lot more money and not get better.

Tools seem to be good condition, not sure how I feel about the construction of the wrap for the tools. Overall happy about the purchase.

Good tools

This is an amazing set of tools! I have Pfeil gouges, two cherries and I have the flexcut deluxe mallet set. I bought this set just to have as a travel set, (I bought the tool roll so I wouldn't have to carry it in the wood box). I didn't expect to love it like I do being a beginners set. Let me explain why... These tools are much thinner than your standard gouges. Which translates to them sharpening like razor blades. Even though my other tools are just as sharp they don't slice as well in hard wood because they get thicker sooner. Anytime I'm working with really hard wood from now on this is my go tool kit. I can ease off thin layers at a time but overall go through much faster and easier. I love this kit! These tools do flex as the name suggests. It's a little odd at first but you quickly forget about that. Like I said, I have the deluxe mallet set as well, but being intended for a mallet it doesn't flex very much. These flex with ease with every push. At first I thought it would be a problem, but the project I was working on was with an unreasonably hard batch of poplar. So I was just playing with my new stuff and quickly realized this set went through the wood faster than my very expensive Pfeil tools. And I do keep my tools razor sharp. Bottom line, this may be called a beginner set, but it is a very nice set for an experienced woodcarver. One of the best purchases I've ever made for my tool collection. I will definitely be checking out more of these Flexcut products. I started with the carvin' Jack six blade and then got the deluxe mallet set based on how well I liked how the carvin' jack held an edge. The mallets tools are just as impressive. Now this set has impressed me even more. YOU CAN NOT GO WRONG WITH THIS SET!

During a quick shopping walk through at Lowes I picked up a wood carving magazine. I have always like woodworking of any kind but always wanted to try and learn carving. While reading the magazine and learning more about wood carving I realized I needed some tools to start with. The FlexCut tools are a little expensive but I wanted to start out with some good ones so I would have the best chance to succeed. They are really great! Like I said, I am a beginner but these tools seem to make it simple. With this set they sent a stamped piece wood that I started carving on the day I got them and a simple but detailed instruction booklet explaining cutting techniques, angles to the wood grain, and how the different tools are used for different cuts. Great information for beginners and even intermediate carvers. The tools were just like what you see in the pictures. They seem to be made from high quality materials and are polished to a razor sharp edge. Cutting with them has been effortless and actually simple. It has been a really positive and exciting learning experience and I look forward to the future hobby of wood carving because of my start with these tools. The tools are sharp, sturdy, and they interchange with the handle quickly and easily. The handle is comfortable and fits nicely in your hand. And with the supplied pouch it all rolls up in to a small, organized space. The next thing I will purchase from FlexCut is the chisel sharpening tool(not sure of it's name) and compound. To anyone who is serious, I would recommend this as a very worthwhile and project capable set of tools.

I have more expensive carving tools, and I like them better. But, I would say that for the money paying $150 for this many tools is a really good deal. Also, I like the fact that they all are made in the US and pretty sharp out the box too. I think a lot of people will like the instructions and the dvd included which helps explained things for beginners. I would buy the more expensive Pfeil tools, but I noticed they were not available. But, I am glad that I bought these tools instead. I think they are still really well made and are not a lot worse than the Pfeil tools. I would say the main difference is that the Pfeil tools are designed with more intricate angles and made for a higher standard of work. I would recommend these to anyone that is particularly not a professional artist. I think that even being one myself that they work really well, but I do linocuts and mostly make mono prints with a profession press. I think the biggest question should be what are you using these for. I would buy the Pfeil if I was making wood relief prints or carvings. I would not hesitate buying these if you are only using them for linocuts.

For beginners or veteran carvers this is a great set. Blades were razor sharp. Really like the interchangeable handle. Very comfortable.

super ciseaux à bois attention ça coupe comme un rasoir acheté pour la sculpture sur bois ,content de mon achat ciseau efficace et coupant je recommande mais attention aux doigts bien respecter les conseils d'utilisation

De las mejores comprar que he hecho. La marca responde, no por nada son de las mejores gubias del mercado y con costo moderado. Ya tuve oportunidad de probarlas en la madera y bastante bien, todas las navajas tienen muy bien filo. Pero la más pequeña es mi favorita, por el sin fin de detalles que podré escarbar.
