 Great tools October 19, 2008
This is one of the best tools sets that I have ordered and put to work. The wooden storagecase is very nice and built well.
Super Great Tools for "Mini - Turning"..! September 25, 2008
I couldn't beleve the quality of these turning chisels..! The only reason I used a stone on the edge is because I can't be satisfied till I put in My own touch, I'd strop a Bic Razor if I could get it back together..! Serious tools..JusT GreaT...! Yup - You won't be disappointed..! G-G
 A great deal, for the price July 24, 2008
I see similar 5 piece "mini" tool sets nearly identical to this one, selling for much higher (Sorby, Delta, etc). I have never been able to find any difference between them. These "name brand" tools sell for $125 and higher. And for what? The name on the label? These PSI tools are a great deal, for the price.
Well worth the $$$ May 27, 2008
Using High Speed Steel (HSS) means much less tool sharpening. This is especially true with micro-sized tools. At the low online price, these woodturning tools are a great value. Also, when I had one minor issue with the first set I received, ASI replaced it immediately (within 3 days). I am very happy with this purchase, and recommend using ASI and Amazon to others. Thanks.
Sincerely,

I have owned two sets of these tools because they are cheap, the right size for my applications, and I can grind them for special applications. However, they are not tempered well. I have had one shatter when it fell on the concrete floor and another snap while turning - quite a sensation! Anyhow, know what you are getting. You can get the same tools as Jet Mini-lathe tools, made by Crown, for about $80 - much nicer steel.
