Ah thanks. A quick search of their site doesn't reveal what we are looking for (daughter fancies doing some spoon carving) but I'll give em a call tomorrow if they are open.
I had already scanned the Tillgear catalogue and I don't think they do exactly what we looking for (even if not Frosts etc). I don't think they open on Sat either.

Bad form n that but I gave em a ring this morning at they said they did have a set of 'Faithfull' wood carving tools but although I emphasised the description of the particular tool I was after "you use it sideways against your thumb like some veg peelers ... the sharp bit is on the side, not on the end like a std chisel ..." I wasn't convinced I was getting through. A Google for said tool set shows yer typical chisels and gouges (and even one called a spoon gouge) but not what I was looking for.
The handy thing for daughter is she shouldn't have any issues getting material to practice on as she currently spends much of her day feeding such through a chipper. ;-)
