Customer Reviews

I have been ordering from them for many years and I always have a great experience. There tools are top notch and they ship quickly. Also they always answer any questions or concerns in a timely manner. I give them A*****.

I have been a wood carver for 8 years and I always buy tools from them because they are exceptional quality tools. I will always buy my tools from them. Thank you so much.

The Dastra gouges are wonderful.   Out of the box they are VERY sharp (it is my new benchmark for my own resharpening) and hold the edge very well.   I  like that fact the gouge size is clearly market.   The handles are larger in diameter and offer better grip when needed carving in hard woods (like the maple back of a viola!).   I’ve also noticed that the bevel angle is very consistent always providing excellent cutting ease.    I have noticed this is not the case on some other brands.  In the end they have every size I need and are always available through Diefenbacher…my go to source for for gouges and chisels

Well made tools that hold their edge. Handles are comfortable and durable, wood mallets have not been an issue.

Excellent service and delivery! Very sharp to get started right away! Well balanced knife! Love it!

I recently purchased a 1/2″ paring chisel to use in my instrument making and repair work.  What a great tool!  My collection includes German, English, and Japanese tools and your chisel matches or exceeds them all…and for a lot less money!

I received my two paring chisels from Diefenbacher Tools today…My guitars will be proud to be touched by such precise blades.  Thank you again for the excellent service and for selling such a quality product. Musically yours,

I bought a set of Diefenbacher Firmer Chisels. I am very pleased. They sharpened up quickly. Took a good edge and cut great. These are the chisels my Blue Chips dream of being.  Great tools and the customer service was great also.

The Firmer Chisels I found at Diefenbacher Tools are fine hand tools! The large handle makes them easy to control and the steel holds a great edge even when I use it hard.  For the money, no tool I know of compares in looks and quality.
