Excellent quality and craftsmanship. They do their job very well, hold their edge beautifully, and are easy to sharpen. I really enjoy using them!

Have always been impressed with the quality of D-Way tools and these are no exception. Sharp, versatile, and super easy to make great beads from the very start. Be sure and watch their video on how to use these tools and you will have success.

We recently had an opportunity to visit Cindy and Jimmy at their Washington Shop.
Jimmy demonstrated the ease of use of the D-Way beading tools which we purchased and have since added more sizes to. These tools create very nice beads in all of the wood we have used them on . They hold an edge which is consistent with all the D-Way tools we own (somewhere over 20).
These have all been a great investment and we do appreciate their advise and commitment to providing great tools and service.

I have almost a full set of D-Way beading tools now. I like using them to enhance my projects. They work great.

You won't find a nicer beading tool. Very rarely needs sharpening, but when it does, it's a simple process. Makes some very nice beads. I own 5 of the 7 beading tools. If you own them, you'll use them.

I recently added a pair of beading tools to my arsenal. They were the D-Way 1/16" and 3/32" beaders. I had a commission to create an earring stand for a friend, to which I used the 1/16" with my previous purchase of the 1/8" beader. These provided a beautiful accent set of beads on the center stem. My client loved the outcome. In addition, I also added the 3/16" and Tear Drop tool over the past couple of weeks, not to mention a second 8" handle. Thanks for creating these easy to use additions to my inventory!

I use these beading tools often. I think they are high quality, and well-worth the cost. The shipping speed was super-fast. Highly recommend!

I can't convey how pleased I am with the performance of the 1/8 and 1/4 in ones I have! Easy to use and sharpen (they came sharp and ready to go).

The way these are made make them the best beading tools available. You can lay one bead next to another without any space and it is not necessary to use them with a handle for beading inside inside a bowl.

Using these beading tools lets me achieve the quality and consistency I would never get otherwise. A great product for sure.
