Same place as where you would purchase tools for someone more advanced.

amazon might be your best bet, but i wouldnt rush out and buy every tool you see though, the only bonsai tool i bought was a concave cutter, i found things i already have work just as good for now.

Not sure where you live, but like Auk said, I would recommend getting good quality tools from the start.
I live in Australia and I've just bought my second lot of Stainless steel tools from Bonsai Warehouse - www.bonsaiwarehouse.com.au while they have a 2 for 1 deal on Bonsai tools :)
Was really happy with the product and they do free delivery. My Club members are topping up too! Hope that helps!

If anyone is in Australia they can purchase from www.bonsai-en.com.au or the link directly to the webstore is www.bonsai-en.shop

Great
Welcome to the forum

As we are picture junkies.. And of those?

Hi all,I live in Switcherland and total beginner. Some friends bought me a Bonsai for my birthday, I believe is a pine.Does anybody know where I can get good quality Bonsai tools? thxs.

I am not sure it makes sence to purshase good quality tools for a beginner with just one tree.

The best right now is just let the tree grow freely for a year or so. In the meantime I am sure you will find a good sourse for tools. In my opinion, garden secateurs, sharp scissors and a side cutter for electricians works good for a beginner. The only bonsai specialized tool I would recomend to get is a good branch cutter. But as said, it is more than a year before you need it.

Even more important: your pine needs to be outside always, inside it will die
