"I received the bench chisel set today, It looks great and feels great
in hand, the craftsmanship is excellent."
 

"Dave, I just wanted to say thanks! Came home from work on Friday to find a wonderful surprise, my mallet, all cozy and warm in a perfect fitting t-shirt. The photos on your site do not do this thing justice, it is beautiful! Perfectly balanced and with just the right amount of heft. I was so afraid to take the plunge and put the first mark in it, I actually left it on my desk till morning, woke up and had to hold it. Then of course, had to go out to the shop and crank out some mortises (perfect timing too, as I had quite a few to do), after a weekend of smashing this sucker into my chisels and tapping pieces of wood for test fittings, ….. Anyway, after three solid days of abuse there is yet to be even a scratch on the mallet (same can't be said for the shirt) don't know how you do it, but thanks for doing it!"
 

"Package arrived yesterday.  Gorgeous stuff.  Used the mallet and one chisel a little this morning to clean up a stopped dado and a notch, but can't wait to use them extensively.  Great, great work, Dave."
 

"Just wanted to say great job on the mallet! REEEEALLLY nice."
 

"Just wanted to drop you a note to say how much I've enjoyed using your dovetail chisels and small marking knife. It is truly a pleasure to work with such finely crafted tools. My Japanese dovetail chisels seem downright clumsy by comparison. Now to your mallet; How to you expect me to use this mallet when it is so beautiful?  Seriously Dave I believe that you may have outdone yourself with this item because it is the first time that I purchased any new tool that I didn’t at least try it out!  I just couldn’t bring myself to hit a chisel with it for fear that I may dirty it."
 

"I received my dovetail chisels as well as my marking knife and scratch awl as well as your note about my paring chisels being sent along fairly soon.Thank you very much and the four tools that I received are absolutely beautiful as well as fully functional.

I just wanted to send you a mail to say thank you for the tools you have made for me. They are a real joy. Thanks for all your hard work."
 

"Dave, I just wanted to let you know that my small marking knife arrived and it is beautiful. I cant wait to be able to use it. I appreciate the quality that  the tool shows. I also want to commend you on your communication and business  practices. I am very satisfied and will most likely be back in the future."
 

"Just a quick note to let you know my new chisels arrived today.  They are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.  Thank you so much for your wonderful workmanship and your ability to get them here before mid-December.  Look for more orders from me in the near future.

Tools received, have used marking knife already.  I anticipated they would be beautiful; they are even more so than I thought."
 

"Just a quick note to let you know the marking knives arrived. Being a small independant furniture maker I am always a bit wary about the 'latest' tools that come on the market with the usual "woodworking celebrities" endorsing them. I have usually managed with workshop made jigs or tools. However I must say your marking knives are simply perfect! They are of exceptional quality, a joy to use and well worth every penny! (Or cent as the case may be)."
 

"Dave, Once again thanks for the paring chisels.  I sharpened them this
weekend and they work like a dream.  By far they are the best chisels
that I own."
 

"Dave, I received the chisels today and they are absolutely works of
art.  Thanks ever so much, I shall use them with joy and care for them
so that they can be passed down to my children.  Again, thanks ever so much."
 

"Just wanted to drop you a note telling you how much I've been enjoying
my skewed chisels you made for me.  Every time I pick one up, I get this
pleasant feeling of using a really fine tool for the right purpose, in
this case, cleaning up dovetails.  I'll probably get your bench chisel
set next. "

"The chisels came and really look terrific!"

"I just wanted to thank you for being the “cherry topping” to my Woodworker Christmas!  I had very few, well-made tools on my list, but the one I looked forward to the most was my Blue Spruce Toolworks marking knife.  I’ve wanted one since before that article in Woodworking Magazine by Chris Schwarz; I’m not really sure why I didn’t pick one up sooner. After a few short minutes of flattening and honing on the ceramic stone, my new marking knife is ready to go! I just wanted to thank you personally for providing woodworkers with such quality craftsmanship in a tool."

 "My favorite Christmas present this year is an amazing set of Blue Spruce chisels from my wife.  I can't wait to try them out.  The African blackwood is beautiful.  Great job on the details!" 

"Just got into town and opened the beautiful presentation and was amazed at the marking knife! The most beautiful, yet useful, tool I own."

"I just got the marking knife; it is beautiful and I know my husband will love it and use it for many years to come.  Thanks for expediting the knife.  Merry Christmas."

"Received my two skew chisels just now, and wanted to tell you that they
LOOK FINE!  Can't wait to go home and try them. Very nice quality
craftmanship - First Class!"

 "Just received the set of chisels and marking knifes.  They are absolutely beautiful.  The marking knife is one of the best I have ever seen."

"Received my order yesterday.  Thanks so much.  I was very impressed by the quality of the marking knives and rushed out to my shop last night to try them out.  Outstanding tools.  Congratulations and thanks for a great product. "

"Received the Marking Knife Set + Large Awl & was impressed with the craftsmanship of the Knives & Awls they are really work friendly & will certainly get a lot of use. I am glad I chose the Cocobolo."

"WOW!  These are amazing. They seem more like artwork than tools. They are absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to use them."

"Upon opening your chisels and drawbore tools last week I was amazed. They are absolutely beautiful. The real benefit is they cut as well as they look. I am fortunate to have quite a few sets of high end chisels. I will now place yours at the top of the list."

"I received the knives the other day in the mail. They are really beautiful and quite a work of art!"
