LN Chisels

[Aragorn]

Please can anyone tell me what the deal is with the LN set of chisels?
Axminster are "Currently Out of Stock" and Lie-Nielson are saying 4-6 weeks.
Yet I'm sure some of our more gloat-happy members have them dotted about in their photos. (Especially, I might add, non-chisel related photos :roll
TIA

Aragorn,
What do you mean "whats the deal"??
They are the greatest chisels I have ever used- a wonderful weight, flat as a pancake on the back and hold a mean edge.
You know you want them!
Cheers
Philly

 

[Aragorn]

That's just the point Philly! But where do I get them from that has them in stock??

 

[Philly]

Hmm....
Order direct is the fastest, but I hear people on Woodcentral moaning about the delay.
sorry
Philly

Hmm, I believe they've widened out the range of sizes a little; perhaps they didn't stock pile enough of the first five sizes before they got going on the new ones...? You could try Classic Handtools; Mike might have a set.

Cheers, Alf

Thanks for the link Alf.
Philly, did yours come direct? Did you pay any extra duty?
Just trying to figure out whether I'm saving anything buying direct...?

Philly, did yours come direct?

Think he got them at Tools04, although then again he had quite a few gloats that day so I may be mistaken

The US exchange rate is real good at the mo, although I got caught by Customs-cost me about an extra 35% on the cost Very rapid though.
