Birthday present from my Sweetie

Don in Northern Arizona


>A mixed bouquet of Dave Jeske Blue Spruce Toolworks dovetail chisels. They feel as good as they look. Now I have to make a nice box for them so they don't rattle around in my tool well. From the top cocobolo, dogwood, African blackwood, and tulipwood.

>Nice haul Don!

How'd you ever get "Sweetie" trained to buy such nice gifts?

The "patterned" of these is a bit different that what I've seen before, are they "special purpose" chisels?

Happy Birthday to ya', and I know every day forthwith will be Happy as well! :~)

>Todd,

They are designed to do the final fitting of dovetails or similar fine work. They are relatively small, the handles are very comfortable, and to me they feel perfectly balanced. The arrises are tiny so you don't need to use a skew chisel to get into corners. The side bevels are hollow ground to help with that too. And let's see... Oh yeah, they're real purty.
