>Derek,

Only places I know of listed at the link below. There doesn't seem to be a decent new tool place in London anymore judging by discussion I've had elsewhere.

Cheers, Alf

Bill Lowrance in Geneva

>Re new tools in London. Buck and Ryan Ltd, a new-tools shop at 101 Tottenham Court Road ("Since 1824") north of the Goodge Street tube station, carries a decent variety of backsaws, Clifton and other planes, good sharpening stones, and hand tools generally (with an area in the back for power tool bits and blades), and has a large cabinet full of Japanese chisels and planes. Nothing really unusual, but not bad.
