I'm just new at wood carving and I'm pleased with these knives. They arrived with very sharp blades, ready to use. The quality of the knives is very good. The blades are strong and because the shape of the handle is curved and not very long, they fit well in my small hands. I recommend these knives for anyone wanting to try wood carving. In the future if I need to add to my collection, I definitely will see what Flexcut has to offer for whatever I need.Excellent for fine detail, very sharp extreme care must e used while using these, you will get cut if not careful! Must sharpen properly, cannot use a stone, it will destroy the edge. A strap is required to sharpen!I have several Flexcut Knives and tools. These are no different as for Quality than what I already have. Great tools for beginner to expert. Came razor sharp from manufacturer. If I had any issue it is with the way the order was handled. Order was for two Items that were ordered at the same time, same supplier as listed on Amazon both paid for at checkout. Items arrived on separate days. Items are small enough to be shipped together.I rated it top for beginners because we all have to draw a little blood to become good. Otherwise this level of cutting is only important to chip makers who are particular in detail and can see well enough. Hey made in Erie PA, thanks fellows.Product is high quality and arrived fast. The tools included are ones often mention in project descriptions. Not cheap but a really good value in my opinion.like the ability for fine detail also remain sharp for quite long. I would buy this set again.Comfortable when holding and carving !They feel flimsy in the hand. I didn't test the blade. I have the palm flex cut and those are great. I wanted extra small blades but these were returned because of the handle. I'll stick with the palm handles.I have always admired Flexcut products. I have several larger sizes that I use every time I carve. The company does an amazing job of sharpening, honing and stropping; so they come ready to use immediately. I have already used a few of these in this set today, and I am 100% pleased and delighted with these tools. I recommend Flexcut to anyone who desires quality tools for a reasonable price.Ces outils de précisions sont aiguisés et utilisables dès réception. Assez difficile à aiguiser soi-même. En largeur, oui, il n'ont que 1,5mm au maximum mais la pièce de métal utilisée a, elle aussi, 1,5mm d'épaisseur. Ça donne un "minuscule bloc de métal". Le "profil" de la lame est donc dur à aiguiser. Évidemment, je parle dans l'infiniment petit. Mais bon, il n'y a pas tant de manufacturier d'outils aussi fins alors je travaille à maîtriser l'aiguisage. Je n'ai pas trouvé mieux sur le marché.They were sharp right out of the package, great for fine details. Fast delivery, less than a day. Very satisfied.These are perfect for the small details of my carvings. The tools fit well in the hand, are sharp and so tiny. Perfect set of tools to add to one's carving arsenal.I bought it because it is completing my wood carving knife collection. It really gets into small spaces and it is ideal for detailling. The knives are really sharp. The handles are nicelly made. Great buy!
