Seller changed his mind about selling bench chisels alone and did not respond to further communication.

Oops. I had no idea there was controversy here. I saw the ad on CL and offered to buy them. Tonight, I was randomly browsing the LJ FS and saw the ad. I apologize for any ill feelings of confusion. Especially to TopamaxSurviror, who appears to be holding a serious firearm.

I would not say serious. The post said it was “strange.” I just said, yes, it is “strange.” That is my #7 jointer ;-)
