Rating:  - Quality Set For The Price
Let me first say that I am new to woodturning and that this is my first set of chisels. After using them about a dozen times already, I would have to say that they are really great. I've had no trouble with them at all and the tips seem to be just as sharp as when they were new. The length of the chisels plus their weight makes them relatively easy to control.

Rating:  - losing the handle
After using several of the tools from this selection three of the tools began to loosen from the handles. I have been turning some seasoned stock and maybe these tools can't handle hardwoods. They seemed to work fine with green stock. Other than the loosening of the handles they perform fine. I solved the problem by shimming the tool stock back into the receiving end of the handle.
Rating: - You get what you pay for
At $6.50 a tool you get what you pay for, not a bad purchase for the price. Next time I will pay more and get better quality. I had to re-temper the tips, because they would hold an edge.
Rating: - Tools are a great beginner's find
I had no idea what all I wanted but I found this set and feel it will teach me how to use the lathe. Also will teach me what tools I will need in the future. The tools I found a little dull and needed sharpening. The tools came in a timely manner
