Hi John,

Welcome to the list.

Quoted text begins.RE: "wood carving tools on alabaster without ruining them?"
End of quote.


Alabaster (generally soft)has hard inclusions and softer areas -- wood tools will work OK for the soft areas, but you will nick the blades on the hard inclusions . . .
You like to resharpen?

Good Carving to you,
Don
