Any opinions on the two knives in this beginners kit. Looking for a general purpose and a detail knife.

There pretty good folks and I believe that is a good deal.

Mention this Site and John Day. They took care of me at the Havre de Grace show.

I have dealt with John and Cindy for years.

Honest as the day is long.  And they stand behind their products.

I liked the "Advanced" selection the best.  And I like a 3" blade for removal purposes. 

I saw your pics with JohnR and the others.  That's the best place to try different blades to see what feels right for you.

I probably have 15 knives but only use 3 or 4 with any regularity.

Chris let me know what you think of them, I did my shorebird head with nothing but the knife and enjoyed it. I need a curved one and maybe a detail one.
