    Thumbs up Lee Valley, you've done it again :)

    Last week I placed my first order with LV (other than the Bessey one).

    Ordered PM last Thursday, just had it delivered into my hands.

    It's been said before, but that really is exceptional service IMO.

    Well done LV

    MKII honing guide, 2 skew chisels and a leather chisel roll.

    The last to provide a home for something a certain Chinese gentleman may be bringing me.

    I opted for Xpress post 'cause I'm impatient

    You know you can't sharpen skew chisels in that guide, don't you?

    So what are you going to put in the leather chisel roll, huh? Leather chisels?? Don't tell me you're getting some of those exorbitantly expensive and flashy LN chisels?

    Jealousy's a curse...

    But a bellyache's worse...



    Wongo, buy a set of yellow Stanleys and put them in the LN box. Keep the LNs for yourself, Craig wont notice

    Keep it quiet mate.

    You know they don’t like people taking sharp objects on to the plane don’t you. If I end up in Guantanamo Bay than it is your fault.

    Well, OK, technically you can but the angle setting gauge wont work very well. I've heard that there is some new attachment available soon to handle it but I bet there isn't one of them in Craig's box...
