These shorter chisels get your hand closer to the action and are great for very precise hand cutting and paring of joints. The overall length is about 8" with a 4" blade length. Lightly oil finished Ash handles are very comfortable and give a sure and reliable grip. A striking ferrule allows for mallet use should the need arise. The chisels come in a custom fitted wooden box and includes the following true imperial sizes: 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" and 1". Made in Germany.
The stated sizes are true imperial inch sizes and not metric approximations. Made according to the most stringent German industrial norms, these Bevel Edge Chisels are made by one of the remaining chisel makers in Germany. The blades are hand-forged from special German high carbon steel and hardened and tempered to a guaranteed level of Rc 61. The ability to take and hold an edge has been further enhanced by adding small amounts of Chromium and Vanadium alloys to the steel. The blades are mirror polished to facilitate re-sharpening and honing. Made in Germany.
