[Woodcarver] So many tools ... so many differences ...

[Corey Hallagan]

Hi Jan, I do have a couple Flexcut actually, I had forgotten them. I pretty
much don't use them as I find them very uncomfortable and akward to hang on
to. They cut just fine. I have a Flexcut gouge that I love and am having a
guy make a custom handle for it for me.
