Salix, good point(s). I was not aware of the quality or high esteem you, and possible others hold the tools from the monks. I own JR tools and am very happy with them. I will try a tool from the monks at my next 'need' and see if I too see a difference. My main thrust was at the seller of tools online of unknown manufacturer... those I think we both agree are no bargain!

As for only selling one brand... I do not see that as a problem for an online store. You can shop the other brands at other (online) stores. Your point on quality, is a VERY valid one and I would spend more for a better tool.
