Triangular in cross-section, the blades of these 1/4''-, 1/2''- and 3/4''-wide specialty chisels will reach into angled dovetail corners where ordinary bench chisels come up short.
With blades that are triangular in cross section, these 1/4''-, 1/2''- and 3/4''-wide chisels have excellent clearance for cleaning out the acute corners of dovetail joints. They'll also be handy for other precise chiseling tasks. Their high-quality, chrome-manganese (Cr-Mn) blades are hardened to 59 Rc to retain a keen edge when sharpened and honed. The backs are hollowed, similar to Japanese chisels, which makes the blades faster to flatten in the sharpening process and easier to drive into wood by hand or with a mallet. The European beech handles are comfortable to hold, and brass-plated ferrules and hoops help them stand up to rigorous use. A wooden case keeps the set neatly organized and safely stored.
