    Hi all,, I need your help locating some fantastic burnishers. 

    I bought an estate of a hobbyist jeweler who had a tool collection
    the likes of which few have seen.  Amidst the pile of burnishers
    were two small ones that are just FANTASTIC!  I want to find who
    sells them, 

    They were, I believe,  commercially made  It has been a big surprise
    to discover that they have not been in the catalogues I have checked. 

    The first one is  15 mm long,, 2 mm wide and thin,, with a curve on
    the tip. 

    The second is  10 mm long, 2 mm thick, and tapered at the tip to
    reach tight places.It is about 5 mm at the widest points.  It is  V
    shaped,, much like an arrowhead. It has a fat, round mahogany
    handle, well shaped to fit in the hand,, tapering at both ends of it,
     Good grip shape. 

    They are so good, I use them almost exclusively.  Other jewelers who
    have seen them have always commented and raised their eyebrows in that
    special way that says,, ''Got more?''  I WISH!!! 

    Anyone know anything about these two little work horses? 

Thanks soooo much... Frif
