The Dastra tools are good as are many other brands. I kind
of piddle around at carving and find Flex-cut chisels to be
quite nice. I also bought some Chinese chisels from
Woodcarverssupply.com, stock number 401002 and 401001. They
are not like fine german or Austrian chisels but I find they
hold an edge well and have interesting rustic/primitive
quality that I kind of like. Their price is kind as well
