.....I don,t want to impose on Steve,s coin carving tutorials, but i think Steve will agree, that after most of you carve a few coins you,ll start shaping gravers, points, etc. to your own specs and shape..Steve and i both carve coins, but if you looked at the gravers, points, etc. we use, most of them would be different, yet we,re both coin carvers..
