Default Re: Inexpensive way to give it a try

Brownells has this kit.
HARTLIEP ENGRAVING SCHOOL STARTER SET
Mfr:BROWNELLS
Price:$270.99
Designed By The Master Instructor For Beginners
We've worked out this Engraving School Starter Set with Neil Hartliep. It's designed to exactly fill the needs of the beginning engraver. With the lessons from Neil's book, The Basics Of Firearms Engraving (included in the kit) and these tools, you will get started off on the right foot.

SPECS: Kit contains the following: 1, Chaser's Hammer; 2, #6 Square Gravers; 2, #1 NgraveRŪ Handles; 1, #16-6 Straight Line Graver; 1, #8-6 Straight Line Graver; 1, #44 Flat Graver; 1, #36 Flat Graver; 1, #2 NgraveRŪ Dotting Punch; 1, #3 NgraveRŪ Dotting Punch; 1, 6" Stainless Steel Ruler; 1, Carbide Scribe; 1, Divider with Lead, Ink and Steel Tips; 4, #642 Wood Handles; 1, #5 OptiVISOR; 1 book, The Basics Of Firearms Engraving


Does this look like a good starter kit or would I be better off going with something else.

Does Steve offer a similar package? I haven't calculated the price would I be better served getting some handles blanks and sharpener from Steve
