I may order a couple from Japan just to expand my chisel range or really just because I can :-).<br /><br />kenI'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-87011306048845322062015-12-09T19:45:11.464-08:002015-12-09T19:45:11.464-08:00I agree with you.

I cannot understand why Lie Nielsen stopped making O1 chisels and now only makes them in A2. I have a mixture from them and strongly prefer the O1s. I sharpen my O1s more frequently but spend less total time sharpening.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394365117138074832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-2272672331159209032015-12-09T19:45:05.874-08:002015-12-09T19:45:05.874-08:00I agree with you.

I'll cross these WoodRiver off my list :-)<br />You would think that with today metallurgical know how we could consistently produced good tool steel, but nah... Once in a blue moom I ran into "funny steel" like you described, but never with my "antiques", only new crap.<br /><br />Bob, sipping a cold one. Its 2100 here, now :-) <br />Valley Woodworkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322487171914484954noreply@blogger.com
