  This first volume deals with the selection, sharpening and maintenance of woodcarving tools. Truly sharp edges are essential for effective carving, and the author's detailed instructions and clear illustrations show how the right results can be achieved every time. Though the emphasis is on traditional chisels and gouges, the use of power tools is also covered, and ancillary tools such as mallets, abrading tools, knives, punches and scratch stocks are all considered in detail.
