    You are a good carver but you have no business promoting carving tools. You have botched the Schaaf carving tools. Quit trying to talk soon fast. I couldn't even make out some of the names of tools you were trying to pronounce. What do I know, I've only been carving for 68 years now? I wish you well but stick to carving your pretty good at that!! Blessings you you!!

    Thanks, Alec. I’ve just started dabbling with chain saw carving and have my son’s hand-me-down (or up) electric - a must for my neighborhood as well. Not much power for an off brand. So, this was a timely post and I’ve seen a lot of other carvers using Stihl’s. Also, just got your book. WELL DONE! Looking forward to learning as I’m just starting with realistic human faces. Keep up the excellent work!

    Better yet challenge of the day I challenge you to sharpen them to the proper profile profile and sharpen them the way that they should be I want to see if I'm an idiot and suck completely even though I have tons of knives and sharpened all of them to razor sharp and my wood carving tools are pretty much scalpel Sharp but I could not get them to sharpen up past their current sharpness it was like the metal wouldn't hold like you noticed the defect in the little blade when you start polishing them and sharpening them and reprofiling them you'll find more odd spots but I challenge you you have been officially challenged I double dog dare you you can't go past that LOL😂

    Bought one . Found it just a bit thick . Sanded it down to a flat blade. It's a lot better. I have an occ that I really like so I use it. But it's twice the price . It a great little knife I just have a favorite.

  • @VdubSPAZ

    I can honestly say I bought Beavercraft first Sharpen them the way they were supposed to be sharpened in the first place I hands down say that Beavercraft by far is better than that will ever be I bought them because of the name happens to be the same name as My friend And he was like Well that was a disappointment sorry man And I laughed I've bought Flex cut I bought Beavercraft And Beavercraft is just as good as flex cut Once you get it nice and polished I like the handles better than Beavercraft than I do flex cut because of that waxy Finish on the handles But other than that The schaaf tools socks.... if I was to purchase that said I would never ever been as far along as I am now with carving I literally would have quit but I did buy their $12 vtool gouge set and it's not great but it is very doable

  • @VdubSPAZ
    @VdubSPAZ 4 дні тому

    I can tell you already they handpicked that particular set for you I'm telling you from a fact of my purchase from Amazon I almost wondered if it was like a reject or a send back that's how bad it was and you cannot get that micro bevel out because of the way the actual metal is it does not take an edge at all I went through and re-profile the blade and found lots of defects and how the blade was ground in the first place you don't see it at first but I took it down as far as I could possibly take it even down to 8000 and it would not hold an edge

  • @VdubSPAZ
    @VdubSPAZ 4 дні тому

    I can let you know from the very get-go before I even watch this the tool set I got nails to say none of the blades were straight to the handles the blades are supposed to be manganese what manganese is not magnetic so I don't know what metal it is it doesn't sharpen correctly and there was a weird Burr in the metal of one of my blades what otherwise the Polish on the metal look great and the handles looked phenomenal as well too bad they're finishing their product was not as such and the metal blades are not ground correctly
