Those Asian 7 piece sets are available at almost any swap meet in the country for $12.95 to $22.95. THEY ARE ABSOLUTE JUNK…… do yourself a large favor and LEAVE THEM RIGHT WHERE YOU FIND THEM. They are too small (possibly made for more petite Asian workers), too light, too soft (because they are cast, not forged) and the handles are more round than oval. I can not recommend them even for a beginner, it would be like a death sentence to remain a beginner for life. Excellent tools are not going to make a beginner an expert but junk tools like those 7 piece sets will hold him back forever IMO. ~ John Buchtenkirch
