Japanese Chisel Set
Sale price$172.00
Description
By design, Japanese chisels are highly functional, light in weight and, above all, a delight to use in the workshop. Their design has evolved from centuries of use and tradition. Using techniques that evolved from sword making, these chisels are made from two distinct layers of steel. The bottom layer is a very hard carbon steel. Laminated to this hard layer is a much softer but tougher steel, which gives the chisel it’s incredible strength, more than any one type of steel could have provided. This is a bench set. The handle is made of Japanese Red Oak. And because the chisel maker is committed to utilizing every part of the tree, wood grain and color will vary within the set of 4 chisels. Blade widths are: ¼, ½, ¾, & 1”. Handle length is 4-1/4” and total length is 9-5/8”.

awesome chisels! very sharp and
"awesome chisels! very sharp and easy to use."
Beautifully crafted and thought-out
"Wow! These chisels fit my ""chisel-hand"" perfectly. God bless the Japanese craftsman -- who is, archetypically at least, so much more attuned and connected the work ""at hand"" than, say, his/her American counterpart."

Great Chisels
"I wasn’t ready to take the plunge on a set of $400 chisels so these were a great alternative. They came right out of the package exceptionally sharp. They look great and feel super sturdy in your hand. I would definitely recommend them!"
Japanese chisels
"These are visually pleasing and easily to handle chisels that when properly sharpened will cut the tiniest chip to large chip removal."
Poor service.
"I ordered these chisels, one came with a nick in the cutting edge, one ferrule literally falls off. I called for a return a week ago, I was supposed to get a return shipping authorization in 2 days. 7 days later, no authorization."
Q&A
- Which of the TWO DISTINCTIVELY DIFFERENT sets of chiselds are these? You have two different types shown in the pictures.
- Glenn, the chisel sizes in the set are 1/4", 1/2", 3/4" and 1". Our photographer tells me the angle of that last shot gives a slightly distorted view, particularly of the large 1" chisel. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
- Do these come with any kind of storage case?
- MRM, sorry , the chisels don't come with a box. The reason is that we were selling them individually before but now we are selling them as a set. Thank you.
- Is there a brand name associated with these chisels?
- Aaron, Maruyoshi
- Who is the maker?
- We cannot release the names of manufacturers but this set is made in Japan.
- Are these bench or timber chisels? Thank you
- This is a bench set.
