    Default A box arrived from Lee Valley

    Objectivity is the last thing on my mind when packages like this arrive ...



    Like everyone else, I am always in awe at the quality of the work ..



    It never ceases to humble me that I get these opportunities to play with these tools before others. Of course, once the honeymoon is over, I must regain the objectivity. But for a while I shall just play ...

    Regards from Perth

    Derek

    Skew blades - are they ready to go out of the box or do they need honing? (they can be tricky)
