[Woodcarver] Ashley Iles

[Barney Elking]

I read the comment the other day about Ashley Iles tools being soft and
couldn't relate to it.  I've used Ashley Iles tools as my "long" tools for
quite a few years now and still add to my collection from time to time.
They seem to be about the same "hardness" as my palm tools and I'm quite
satisfied with both.

Ashley Iles carving tools.  One opinion I already received was that they
were softer than other tools.  But thier rockwell numbers are still in the
58-61 range I believe.  So if any others out there care to
comment........please do.
