DON'T BUY CHEAP TOOLS...EVER! Life is too short to screw with crappy tools. Buy the best you can afford and learn to maintain them properly. They will last you a lifetime and down to your grand kids...If the tool says, "made in China" PASS on that tool...

I’ve no disagreement with finding and buying the best you can afford. For me I’m glad I started my carving career with a few cheap tools or I never would have started in the first place. Being self taught I upgraded to better tools as my skills improved and the necessary tools became obvious. To me it’s a journey of learning and discovering what matters to you and what doesn’t. Now I look for good quality vintage user tools that are under priced relative to collectibles. In other words good but cheap tools that need some TLC.
