I've got one - it's pretty handy. I sharpened it up scary sharp when I got it and keep it in my hip pocket. Use it quite a bit when I'm doing hardwood floors when I don't have my toolbelt on.

That fastcap booklet was in the JLC issue in my mail the other day. FOr 20 bucks the folding chisels look like they can't miss. I'm going to order one, I hope it gets into Canada costing under 4o

If you're trying to avoid getting raped at the border, you might be able to order the chisels through Richleau.
Good idea, there is a Richlieu dealer 40kms away.

You get anything you need over the border with 2 rolls of duct tape, and some lubricant.I learned how on the Internet.It's not too late, it's never too late.
I picked up Fastcap's 25' Storypole tape. Compared with my Stanley it's dead on. Inside measurments are right the first time. I'd reconmend it over the Stanley.

Bought the whole set, but haven't used them much. Did 1 hardware install before I had a chance to sharpen them...they needed sharpening. Now I got em nice and sharp, havent used them yet, but I can tell in the sharpening process that they seem pretty soft steel. Add to that the short length , I don't think they will be the go to set for finish work.
I've got a couple, they work well. Get them from Grizzly on sale for $14.95 right now.
