At WOODSMITH we don't even attempt to stock the entire Robert Sorby range but we do try to be the people to refer to for the remarkable ProEdge Sharpening System, all of its abrasive belts and accessories and we also concentrate on Timber Framer's Chisels 286 and the impressive Timber Framing Slicks.
