u/Osagey

I'm a beginner on a pretty small budget and considering getting a drawknife as the hatchet and chisel is definitely not working for me.

The threads on here tend to mostly be around 2-4 years old and it seems like prices have doubled if not tripled since then.

I can't really spend $50+ on a single tool, and I'm concerned that the cheap $20 ones I see on Amazon might not be worth even the time it takes to get them.

Am I probably going to be best off just watching Marketplace and learning how to identify a decent antique one? Or will a cheap one hold it's edge again Osage well enough for a beginner?
