Woodcraft requires only a few basic tools. With growing experience comes the need for more specialized tools, but as a beginner you can do wevenll with a knife, an ax and a saw.

At flea markets and auctions it is possible to find high quality tools at bargain prices, the old tools being made by skilful craftsmen with long experience.

Of course there are many skilful tool smiths these days as well, and you can find new tools of high quality in your hardware store. Most tools have looked more or less the same for hundreds or even thousands of years.
