Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
An excellent chisel set with rugged plastic handles and the incomparable Marples' steel blades. Blue Chip handles have a " rounded square" cross section that fits comfortably in the hand, making the chisel easy to control regardless of the angle of the blade. The Bevel Edge is now the most popular type of general purpose chisel. It is used for chamfering, dovetailing and making clean cuts in tight corners where a thicker chisel would jam. Set of 4 contains 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", and 1" chisels.

5 out of 5 stars Really Reasonable and Good Quality   March 7, 2010
Timothy D. Ulmen (Seattle WA)
Great bench chisels. Give them a quick touch up sharpening and they're as good as most any others out there.

Buy the set - you can never have too many sizes. I'm going to buy a bigger mortising chisel to round out my set.



4 out of 5 stars Almost as good as they used to be.   March 29, 2009

I have a set of these I purchased back when they were made in Sheffield. I bought a second set recently as a gift only to find they are now an asian product. In comparing the 2 sets the older set is definitely nicer, no molding marks on the handles, overall better metal finishing. That said these are still a great value. Unles you wish to spend alot more I don't think you will find a nicer chisel. I find them to be well balanced and hold a nice edge.

Excellent chisels for woodworking. High-Quality steel, made in England. A terrific bargain for the price.


3 out of 5 stars Reasonable value - expect lots of sharpening   March 22, 2008

They're inexpensive, but don't keep a good edge for very long. You can get them pretty sharp, but the edge will be gone with a few mallet blows.
