Sorby Turning Tools

[HarveyWildes]

I have quite a few Sorby (and one Crown) turning tools for sale.  These are traditional tools.  I've found that I do so little turning that I do better with the carbide insert tools even with the extra sanding that they require.  However, for experienced turners, there are no better tools than these.

There are ten tools total, with 5 in new condition and 5 that have been lightly used and sharpened.  All of my sharpening has been on a Tormek, none of the tools has been overheated during sharpening, and the sharpening has only removed a minimal amount of metal.

The total new prices for all of the tools combined is a hair under $700.00.  You can get the lot for $480, plus $19.95 USPS shipping - a savings of ~32%.  I'm open to selling the tools in smaller lots at savings of 15% under the listed new price for new tools, and 20% under the listed price for used, but the shipping will still be $19.95 per box.  A buyer who wants the lot will have priority.

The tools in new condition are:

• 1/16" parting tool - $104.92 new
• 1/8" diamond parting tool - $49.99 new
• 1" square ended scraper - $89.99 new
• 3/4" skew chisel - $64.99 new
• Delta 3/8" gouge - $79.99 new  (made by Sorby, ~2" longer than the used Sorby below)

The tools in used condition are:

• 3/8" Bedan - $49.99 new
• 1/2" round ended scraper - $59.99 new
• 1" oval skew chisel - $79.00 new
• 3/8" gouge - $79.99 new
• Crown 3/8" gouge - $39.95 new
