MHG chisels

[Gary H]

Hello again all.
(Long time - no see etc. but like a bad penny I turn up every so often! )

Anyways, just wondering if anyone has recieved the latest email from Rutlands for the offer of 6 MHG chisel set for £39.99 and whether anyone has had any experience with these little fella's. They look kinda nice, but you know - 'books and covers'.
Had a quick trawl through the forum without much success, but it's been a while since I was here and, hell, I got some reading to do! :shock: Busy here now, aint it?

Ta muchly

Interesting; they're certainly cheap enough, although the brand name (I assume MHG is a brand) is new to me.

Hmm. Dieter Schmid is selling them, and he does NOT sell rubbish.

From a few comments I found in various fora, they're new, but initial impressions appear positive.

At the Rutland price, they sound like a good-odds gamble.

Hmmm, thanks guys. They do seem kinda good but I just wanted to check with you folks 'in-the-know' before diving in.

Sorry Andy, must have missed that issue. Only been a subscriber for about a year But if you are still using them I may have to prise the credit card out of TPTB's purse and catch them while they're on offer! Cheers for that

Thanks for the searches Bugbear, never thought to do that myself #-o
Seems even our friends 'cross the pond have taken to them too..

Ta muchly chaps
