Uchidashi tool set
Michael J. Coffey
Unhappy weekend weather means more bench time, and more bench time means more time to look over my tools. I decided my uchidashi set needed a lot of attention after using some of them on wrought iron and they almost immediately got deformed or just too smooth. Most of them were in the same condition I left them in after taking the class oh so many moons ago (read as: crappy) and needed a lot of attention in addition to heat treatment to harden them up. Now they all have a very satisfying temper color range and happy little textured faces, ready for work.
