- Great variety and knowledgeable staff.
These ferrules are excellent value for money and did just what I wanted to make a new handle for an antique turning chisel
This was my first purchase with this company. They were a delight to deal with. The chisel arrived well packaged. It was put briefly on the grindstone before being used. I will have many hours enjoying this bowl gouge.
The ferrules are excellent quality, robust and seamless with a neat chamfer at one end to assist fitting. I am refurbishing a number of antique chisels that have come into my possession and these ferrules make the perfect finishing touch.
A well made quality tool ,at a reasonable price, good order service as well. Thank you.
Excellent quality appreciably thicker than others I have bought off eBay in the past. They are dimpled in one place which I'm not sure I really wanted since I think they'd be better punched when mounted.
Very helpful. Very sociable, they had a good variety of items for sale fortunately for me they had exactly what I wanted at the right price unfortunately I did not have the time to see everything (Newark show was closing).
My old skew chisel down to 75mm the new one so good to work with.
