There is a wooden case for them
A Chinese manufacturer produces these.
On any of the information it came with, it doesn't say. I found this website and I hope they can help me, it's called "recordpower.". Please see "info".
I received the product without a case, although it came in a nice box.
Selected User Reviews For Record Power 12-Piece Carving Set
I loved it! My husband loved it as well.
I am in good shape. Very good edge holding is a characteristic of steel.
I found her to be a bit bulky and difficult.
I got this set. It was recommended to me by a woodcarver and it was just what my son had been asking for.
I was very happy with the product. It arrived very quickly. I have talked to my husband about how they still remain sharp even after having been used countless times. Very good. I'd recommend it to anyone.
I like it.
Sharpening was done for most of them. This set sounded like it would be decent, so I ordered it. Furthermore, I saw that they had videos posted on YouTube, etc. They appear to be very good tools once they have been received. I did have to hone a few, but most of them had been sharpened. Using the V parting tool proved to be a problem for me. There was no possible way for the heel to cut through basswood due to its location in the V-section. It's going to take quite a bit of metal to smooth out a gouge like profile and create a heel that appears I think that, all in all, this set is good and it would be a great starter set once I was able to get the V parting tool to work. Searching online to research how to shape it, I found youtube videos that give directions on how to do My opinion is that they should have contoured the V tool with the appropriate contouring if the set had been built as a ready-to-carve set. In the event that the work had been properly ground, I would have given them a perfect score.
The soft basswood I was going to carve with my new chisels is too soft to work with. Sharpening of the V chisel until it reached an acceptable and very sharp edge took some time. As soon as the blades cut through a bit of basswood, they started leaving rips. There was a deformation on one of the sides, which disappointed me. It looks as though I'll need to buy a new V chisel now since this one is essentially useless, it can't hold an edge for any length of time and is unusable.
