Cheap knives are the most expensive! What?
Yes, buying cheaper tools actually becomes more expensive in the long run as you will have to replace them more often. They will not stay sharp as long as better quality tools and they will wear faster. Always buy the best quality woodcarving tools you can afford. It pays! Also consider the pleasure you experience when using a quality tool of any sort as compared to the frustration when using poor quality tool.
