Chris seems to be the goto guy for hand tools. Seems like most of the things you read about hand tools he is involved in. I am a real fan of his teaching style. He makes every effort to remove the mysticism from hand tools. He is very good at simplifying hand tool use and selection. My only complaint about this video is that I wish he had covered more tools. I feel like this video should have been broken down into multiple videos. Hand saws and fasteners could have easily been an hour each.

A reasonable overview of cut nails and their use in furniture. Good coverage of the use of a saw bench.
