 Great Bowl Turning Chisel Set! June 14, 2010
AGK (Sierra Mtns, CA United States)
I'm getting started turning and bought a set of these chisels. HSS steel and heavy duty. Quality handles and ferrules. They work excellently! I took a class on turning bowls and we had to bring our own chisels. People in the class had more expensive tools and fancy name-brand tools, but none were really any better quality. The instructor asked about them and was impressed at the quality vs. the price. I highly recommend these chisels to anyone who turns bowls.
Excellent turning tools August 29, 2009

These are excellent lathe tools. I have some top of the line Robert Sorby and Crown lathe chisels that, I feel, don't compare to the cutting quality of these tools - and they cost twice as much as these! Great tools for a beginner or pro!
 Nice bargain bowl set January 19, 2009

I'm just getting started turning bowls, and this set was a valuable addition to my collection of tools. The quality is high compared to the cost; the tools are well made, comfortable to use, and substantial. The box they come in is good for collecting shavings and sawdust. I hate to throw it away, but I don't have a whole lot of use for it.
The most important thing about gouges is keeping them sharp, and there are lots of ways to do that. I haven't used any high-end tools, so I can't compare these ones to them with regard to holding an edge, but I've been happy with these so far. They have sufficient mass for bowl turning, though, and I've been comfortable with the profiles they came with. The scrapers are similarly substantial, though with every bowl I turn I rely on them a little less.
I paid more for one bowl gouge at Woodcraft than I did for this set, and I feel that this set is of comparable quality (aside from the handles, which are more rudimentary). I recommend this set to the beginning bowl turner.
