TIMESETL 17Pack Small Wood Carving Set, 12pcs Wood Carving Tools SK2 Carbon Steel + 4pcs Whetstone + 1pcs Storage Case for Beginners DIY Woodworking Sculpting Whittling with Safety Cap

I didn’t really expect a lot from this set when I ordered it, because the price was low. I thought it would be a cheesy and hastily-thrown-together collection of marginally adequate tools. When it arrived, I was more than pleasantly surprised.The tools’ carry case is sturdy, well-made, with an elegant, clearly printed logo. Unzip the case, and there are two net pockets containing these small carving tools with comfortable wooden handles and sturdy protective plastic caps on the blades. A complete set conveniently assembled; small enough to tuck into a backpack or large handbag to tote.The blades vary in width and utility and are polished and sturdy. This set is for small detail carving, and some of the blades are very small/narrow for precise carving. Since detail carving is what I do, this set will certainly meet my demands.The four sharpening stones are fine grit with various profiles - half moon, triangle, square, rectangle. I’ve not used them yet, but they look as decent as any other sharpening stones I own.Indeed, this is a very nicely compiled set of things: case, tools, tool caps, sharpening stones. I’m more than pleased; this is a fine, fine value.I would most definitely buy this set again.

I have been woodworking now for a couple months. This set is what got me started. I highly recommend for beginners. As for what each tool is used for, i feel the best way to learn is to figure it out yourself. The only issue that I have is, there is no info on the type of whetstone. I did my own research and found that WATER is best used on green silicone carbide whetstones. So for the beginners out there, that had this same question, you're welcome lol. Other than that, great buy for the price.

I have had my set for about a year and have found the tools to be very satisfying to carve with. They hold their edge fairly well and are easy to sharpen. One problem I had with these tools is the handles are so small for my large hands. But they are an excellent buy.

Nice wood working set

The set feels nice to the hand, and the case is nice. I bought them to create stamps, but the smaller ones are not sharp enough. These will probably work more properly on wood. Definitely a good option to get a larger set on a budget.

For a small woodworking tasks, nice set of chisels. I was able to carve a small sailor figure, 8cm in hight, with no problems. With included sharpening stones it can be easily kept sharp and ready for use. Highly recommended.

Very functional for a beginner. They do not handle hard wood but they warn you up front. Have bought some better tools, but often go back to some of these because I became accustom to them. They have gone through probably 50 projects and with sharpening still very functional for some tasks.

I like the different types of tools. They work well and the blades are sharp enough. I did break only one so far, they could be more durable.I like the size, easy to hold and that it comes with sharpening stones.
