Hey everyone... I finally am going to pick up a set of carving tools but being the noob that I am I thought I would get the opinion of a few seasoned carvers.

I'm thinking about getting the following tools:

The carving sets have the following specs..
Materials
Blades: High precision chrome vanadium alloy steel
Handles: Seasoned hard wood, front end covered by steel shum electro plated
Finish
Blades: Precision ground lacquer polished.
Handles: Lacquer polished seasoned hard wood.

The gouges are 6mm, 12mm and 18mm

The gouges are the same material as above except with plastic poly handle.

The whole lot I can get for $60. Is this a fair deal? The tools are ANANT.

Thanking you all so very much for any of your input.
