FULL DESCRIPTION
Made in Germany, these chisels with their 45° skew will leave a clean cut when trimming shoulders, dressing end grain or tidying inside corners.

The blades are made from a premium quality chrome vanadium tool steel, which has high resistance to metal fatigue, to allow for use with a mallet or free hand. 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 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. The chisels have an overall length of 260mm. ©

These skew chisels arrived in quick time and were well and safely packaged. Both in good condition and seem to be of high quality. Have used them while making some small bonsai tables. They were great for paring and slicing through rounded corners. I have not stropped them yet as they were sharp and well edged on delivery. Glad I bought them.

Excellent skew chisels and an essential bit of kit when hand cutting dovetails.

As usual excellent service from Rutlands ordered Monday and received Tuesday. The chisels are excellent. Sharp straight out of the box and razor sharp with a little honing. The handles are comfortable to hold and the chisels are nicely balanced in the hand. The chisel handles have top ferrules but I can't think of a reason for needing to use a mallet on the chisels.

Rutlands chisels are exceptional quality and these skew chisels are no different. When fully honed they have a cutting edge as sharp as a razor and will simply slice though wood such as beech. What more could you possibly want from a set of skew chisels?

Very sharp from new but hone them a little - well my hands have the scars to show just how sharp you can get these chisels. OW.
