Wicked driveby
   Even 40 years ago when they were still available from Silvo Hardware 
(who was still selling NOS), this was a bucket of money's worth of chisels.

Crank necks were invented for those long straight cuts that you need to 
work the far side of. Long smooth bottom grooves mostly. Patternmaking 
certainly, but other jobs too.

  A funny thing.  Time marches on.
Originally the paring gouges were the most dear. They were harder to 
find by far.
But now, most of the paring chisels are long gone, and many more paring 
gouges remain on the market.  So hang onto those chisels no matter what.

  Unless you get bored of them and then call me. Address below 
and.......... I am in the phone book.
    :)
   yours Scott
