Hutsuls Wood Whittling Kit for Beginners - Razor Sharp Wood Carving Knife Set in Beautifully Designed Gift Box, Whittling Knife for Kids and Adults (8 Pieces)

For the price the blades are pretty good , I’ve used them pretty heavy for 19hrs and the edge held up well except for the bottom end of the blade has a slight roll over it’s quite sharp as well

Great quality for a beginner set. Performed well on my first project. Razor sharp. Thanks for providing a great product.

If your looking for a great beginner set for wood carving this is a solid deal. You can’t beat the price of it and everything is good quality. After using a few times I do recommend sharping it with the nice strop they provide, for a dull edge is a dangerous to carve with. Also everything rolls up in pouch/holder it all comes with so that you can store or travel with it easy. Happy with this new set and it also makes a great gift idea for the holidays. Teach your kids to carve and get em off all that blue screen technology.

Learning the basics of wood carving. Maintaining the useful purpose of each tool is paramount. Every day is a confidence builder.

Made well and seem durable. Blade are sharp and handles easily fit your hands.

A starter set but I'm not a beginner. I just started doing spoons and needed a sharp hook knife. The other stuff is extra for me. They come carver sharp! Nice kit bag to keep things orderly too. And no cut gloves which I've needed in the past. Too many bloody carvings.

This kit may be the nicest thing I've ever bought on Amazon. The package is a beautiful little box that somehow manages to hold the entire kit, safety gloves and all. I know very little about whittling - I bought this more to exercise my tired hands after eight hours a day on computers - but this seems like a set that even an experienced whittler would enjoy. The gloves meet the The European Standard for Protective Gloves, EN 388, at the highest level, a 5. That's great for older guys like me who lack the hand dexterity of twenty years ago! Each blade is carefully shaped and sharpened, and fastened to simple but gorgeous wood handles. My only complaint - and this is MY problem, not Hutsuls' - is that the hook blade appears to be geared toward right-handedness, and I'm left handed, so it looks like I may not be able to use it properly. (I might try reaching out to the company to request a left-handed version.) All in all, just absolutely beautiful. It was a joy to unwrap and I've used it the last three evenings to whittle simple ball shapes, and as I said, loosen the cramping from typing on computers all day. p.s. Don't leave the green polishing compound out in bright sun. I melted mine severely (sigh). It's perfectly functional, but not the nice rectangle it once was ;-) Thank you Hutsul!

We bought this for my 9yr old son for Christmas. We have been learning about the basics of carving and didn’t touch the tools until we finished a book I picked up on the subject. My son picked up the tools with no problem and has been able to handle them well. They are well made and super sharp. He does use a glove for safety. He has been enjoying the set so much and has learned so much about wood carving. He made a whistle the other day that worked well. So glad for this fine set. Perfect for a beginner on up.

Perfect set for a beginner. All edges were sharp and comfortable handles. Need honing often but I am working with cottonwood bark and this is apparently common. I am well pleased. When I am ready to replace with higher quality, I will set this set aside for my grandson.

I found the handles to be short, bare unfinished and small in diameter. This unfortunately let down the excellent blades. Maybe okay for a child but not an adult.

For wood carving.

Looks good , though haven't used much
