I’ve looked around Instagram for good tools and his seemed to be one of the best quality and at reasonable prices. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Harry Yeah, He goes by Kevin901120 in DHgate.com Looks like an Etsy shop in China? His prices are a little cheaper if you contact him privately.

I was (and still am) very happy when I used the new awls. His delivery charges stays the same even if you buy a bunch of tools. On the shop site they charge delivery on each item.

I only meant to buy the half moon knife but when I takes 3 weeks for delivery I thought I might a well buy this as well and then maybe this too... before I knew it I was re-financing the mortgage.
