Stainless Steel Wax Carver Tools Clay Sculpting Carving Set Dental Sculpture Instrument with Case

Really great quality for a set of tools. I love that it has a nice case for them as well.

The media could not be loaded.  These are very sturdy and easy to work with. They are also very easy to clean. The pouch is super cute and made of good material. The zipper is really smooth too. Good price for really good tools. Would definitely recommend...P.s. I apologize for the background noise, I wasn’t given the option to mute the sound. But props if you recognize the show playing.

I got these among a bunch of other tool kits for a pet project in clay. I've been wanting to get into sculpting for the longest time. I rather like things that serve their purpose well and are made to last. I absolutely hate planned obsolescence, so like when I can get a tool made of metal that will potentially last me a lifetime. I also like nice things. I got a couple swiss army knives, a simple yet elegant (if slightly slippery) parker jotter, a steel mechanical pencil of the same style, a metal hair comb, steel ear picks, a glass palette to not be subjected to plastic and disposable ones for painting, solar watch, mechanical watch, etc. You get the point. I appreciate nice things that serve their purpose well and last. This is one of those things. While relatively cheap, and I don't expect the pouch to last a lifetime, especially since the tools poke holes through it if they push up against it, the tools themselves are sturdy and nice. I was thinking the tips of the needle-like tools would be rounded, but they are not. I suspect this is preferred to be able to remove material from clay/wax, but I would have liked being able to make marks that don't have mechanical 90 degree angles at the bottom. Not that anyone would see that angle unless looking through a magnifying glass in the tiny tiny hole these needles would make, so a none-issue. This is true for just the three wire-like tips; others have rounded edges for the most part. The big spoon has a bit of an abrupt edge, but I don't see a problem with it. Machining rounded edges on everything will most likely increase time in production and labor cost, hence what you will pay for it. I don't think the tools really need it. You can see the spoon in the photo on the listing itself. The tools feel sturdy and I have no complaints about their construction. The pouch is nice, adorable even, at its size. They would do well to tighten the rubber loops around the tools so they don't slide as easily up and down, but that would also make it annoying to take them out and put them back in. The fancy mechanical pencil and guitar pick are there for size reference. Should I have issues with these down the line from modeling/sculpting, I will edit the review, but I don't think I will need to. Of the bunch of sculpting tools I got, most with wood or plastic handles, with silicone tips, metal balls, etc. etc. etc., these metal one-peace tools will probably last the longest. I read the reviews before I buy anything, especially something without a reputable name behind it, and I had a hard time finding anything familiar sounding for clay sculpting. I got the overpriced sculpey style & detail tool set (with the balls and silicone tips), after watching a bunch of youtube videos and reading the reviews. They are nice. I fear for the silicone tips though. This is a solid set of tools that I will not be afraid to use and abuse. They feel like they can take the beating.

The only issue with these is the case zipper didn't allow the case to open fully and that meant that I ended up breaking the zipper to open the case.Other than that solid case!

just what I needed

I haven't used these yet, they look like they are nicely made

Great product but the zipper was broken when I received it. The zipper pull was in the bag.

This is a very nice set. Perfect for forming wet and bodied clay, dental wax for lost wax casting, surface compounds for giving 3 dimensions to bases under paintings.
