SWMBO bought me a dvd on wood carving - and was thoroughly engaged and i'm looking to start a little carving of my own. I'll mostly use it to decorate the bodies of guitars, or for small items on furniture.
The guy on the dvd recommended Henry Taylor gouges, but for a small set of what he used on the dvd is going to set me back nearly £80 - this is too much for me to spend on something I just want to try out.
So, whilest looking around for alternative, I came across these at Rutlands:

They are dirt cheap, but are they utter rubbish, or would these be useful for a complete newb like myself to try out with first?
OR does anyone have any other alternative's to the henry taylor tools that are good but a bit cheaper?
