They are reasonably priced at <£20 each, and have been good enough quality to forgive all of my beginners mistakes.
I assume it is the roughing gouge you are after? Mine has been sharpened now, time without number, and it still has many years' service left in it by the look of it.
It is yes. Also, don't overlook the Tool Post. Peter gives an exceptional personal service, and the quality of the stock is guaranteed. And pretty competitive too.Davidf":23s91j04 said:Do get the impression that axminster is a not bad place for vfm generally?

This method has worked well for me as I have picked up £40+ gouges for as low as £15 and I have bought a record power oval skew (brand new) for £9
Other than that, the Axminster stuff is good quality and very good value!
