Benjamin's Best 1/4" HSS Rounded Skew Chisel

An outstanding product

I began my initiation in pen turning about two months ago with a TurnCrafter VS lathe and a starter kit from you. In 50 years of woodworking, I had never seen a hand-turned pen, had never encountered a pen turner, and had never been within 15 miles of a lathe...and did not have a clue. To my surprise however, my first slimline pen was a "qualified" success, largely due to your literature and Benjamin's Best 3-piece tool set. Unfortunately, like most newcomers I suppose, I was having a little difficulty trying to get the feel of the skew included in the set, until one day your 1/4" Rounded Skew caught my eye and seemed like a possible alternative to the flat skew. Man, what a revelation. I would recommend to every beginner that his or her first purchase, after the lathe and starter kit, be your rounded skew. It turned my steep learning curve into a little bump in the road. An outstanding product.
