Bevel Edge Chisel – Set of 6
Made in Germany, the blades on these bevel edge chisels are made from a premium quality chrome vanadium tool steel, which has high resistance to metal fatigue, to withstand the demands of chopping. Each blade is hardened to Rc61 along its entire length, resulting in a blade that will hold and retain a sharp, fine edge, over the life of the tool, without becoming brittle when sharpened. The blades are finely polished to achieve a mirror finish to minimise friction when cutting dovetails and cleaning delicate joints. The side bevels are finely ground to a narrow, tapered land for cleaning into angled corners and tight recesses. The blade and tang are forged from one piece of steel, which is seated deeply into the chisel handle for strength and durability.
The handles are made from slow growing hornbeam selected for its straight grain and strength and two steel hoops prevent the handle splitting or spreading when struck with a mallet. The handles have flats on the top and bottom for better grip and comfort.
This 6 piece set is beautifully presented in a fitted, solid beech box and comprises of 6mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm and 25 mm bevel edge chisels, with each chisel having its own location to prevent movement of the chisels. The chisels range in overall length from 250mm to 300mm. These premium bevel edge chisels are built to withstand hard use when chopping out mortice lock and hinges, yet are extremely well balanced for fine work in the workshop when cutting dovetails & cleaning delicate joints. ©
