Handforged Chasing Tool for jewelers and metalsmiths - Basic set of 10 tools

Description

I specialize in Chasing & Repoussé and I'm very good at what I do. Go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/knitsteel/sets/72157602185483704/ to see examples.

This is the same set of 10 tools that I teach students to make at workshops. The set is a significant price savings at $100. Each tool is discounted to $10 apiece, when buying sets of ten or more different tools. Lengths range from 4 to 5 inches long or 10 to 13 cm long. The set includes one small curved undercut planisher, and a nice selection of small liners. Please contact me through Etsy conversations if you would like detailed information on a particular tool that you see in the set.

I make all of the chasing tools that I sell. Each chasing tool is handforged from W1 tool steel, annealed, ground to the final shape, and lightly polished. Then I individually harden and temper just the working tips to a dark brown color, so that they can be used on gold, silver, copper, brass, bronze, etc... and even on sheet steel. The body of the tool remains annealed, so that the striking end mushrooms as you hammer it. You should periodically grind the mushrooming ends off, so that no pieces break off and injure you.

I do teach how to make chasing tools in my workshops.

As always while working with metal, wear eye and ear protection. I've never heard of a smart accident. I've never heard anyone say they regretted wearing safety glasses or ear plugs.
