[Woodcarver] Two Cherry tools

[maricha]

i concur with joe and peter.
the two cherry tools are much more solid and wonderful to handle for 
strength and comfort. the stubai is even more sweet to carve with and has 
the power and edge. go for the best you can get and you will produce the 
best you can do.
cheers
