Presentation was nice. The canvas carrier is well made, and holds the knives snug. The shape of the handles is comfortable, however, they're poorly made. The pins aren't flush at all on several of them which ruins the comfort of the wood. The blades themselves aren't sharp at all. They had a hard time carving through a block of balsa wood. I'll try sharpening them up and see how well the edge holds, but I'm keeping my expectations low.

NormanSparksMany of the custom tools and knives from Japan is made roughly, so the finishing is up to the buyer to do. Something that should be pointed out since not everyone is up to it. So a lower price would be nice. If the finish had been excellent, it may been worth more even. But if you up to spend some time doing a nice finish on these tools, blade and shaft, you can really make them shine and feel good in hand.
