Synopsis
Miters, clamps, squares, bevels, gauges, handsaws, backsaws, planes of a dozen kinds, adzes, hatchets, scrapers, chisels, chamfering devices, boring and threading tools, and striking tools of all kinds -- these handtools traditionally have been the base upon which all craftsmanship was built. These tools for shaping and joining wood were handmade with immense care and skill, and they became the objects of revery and respect. In Traditional Woodworking Handtools, Graham Blackburn has compiled the most authoritative volume available on the subject -- and it will be a delight to all woodworkers. Blackburn meticulously presents the history, description, and use of hundreds of valuable handtools -- and his more than four hundred line drawings clearly illustrate the text. The book explains what the tools are and what they were used for, as well as describing how they work, how they may be tuned and reconditioned, and how they may be usefully employed in every woodworking shop, from the smallest one-person operation to the most modern, fully equipped machine shop. Traditional Woodworking Handtools is both an essential reference and a hands-on manual for anyone interested in the craftsmanship inherent in woodworking. This uniquely engaging guide to all major classes of woodworking handtools -- the product of forty years' practical experience -- is the perfect companion to Salaman's Dictionary of Woodworking Tools.

    This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you!

    This hardback book is of the highest quality, has a fine appearance , arrived in perfect condition, and is an excellent value. On what I was not asked about this time, communicating with the seller would have required using email outside of the eBay system, because they do not accept eBay messages, the book was well packed in a purpose-designed cardboard box, the shipping was faster than I expected for the bound media rate, and the book was exactly as described and pictured.

    Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).
