feelin' low
Hi all,
Feeling a little low and contemplating a little retail therapy!
I have searched, honest, but can't find a link to the Australian manufacturer of chisels who, if I remember correctly, moved to Queensland and would start making again in late 2007.
My memory is the that the brand was 2 mens' names and the sets of chisels looked beee-eautiful.

For a contact number, I think Terry Gordon either caries the chisels or will refer you to Harold and Saxon

I think you will find that Harold and Saxon had their business taken over by William and Norman, after an OH&S incident where Harold got something in his right eye.
You can get them at the following address:
Harold and Saxon
c/- William and Norman
1066 Hastings Avenue
Arrowfield

G'day all,
some notes in the thread about Harold & Saxon chisels. There is a note on the back of the HNT Gordon catalogue as well saying that they were between production runs, due to moving to bigger premises...?

I understand that, when they go back into production, they'll be using 1066 stainless,

The chappie's name is Trent Parry from Queensland. Mate of mine's got a set of chisels from him in rosewood, I think. Lovely tools. I'll see if I can get contact details tomorrow. My mate's actually a forumite but hardly ever posts, mostly lurks. Haven't seen a post from him yet. If he sees this post, he'll know it's him I'm talking about and can save me a phone call, can't you Andrew.
Cheers
