Narex 1/2 and 3/4 Inch Japanese Style Dovetail Chisels

A small tool manufacturer in the Czech Republic produces these exceptional quality chisels. The blades are made from fine-grained, nicely tempered chrome-manganese steel and hardened to Rc 59, allowing them to take and hold an excellent edge. The precision ground blades have an excellent finish.

This set of 1/2" and 3/4" Japanese style dovetail chisels are ground with acute 35-degree angles along both sides of the blades, providing excellent clearance into the tight corners of dovetails. The primary bevels are ground at 25 degrees. The 5-inch long blades are mounted on 5 1/4-inch long, 1 1/4-inch diameter stained European beechwood handles, with two antique brass ferrules. The overall length of each chisel is 10 1/4 inches.

These chisels come with an edge protector, but no retail packaging. As with all edge tools, they will need sharpening before use. However, these chisels represent an excellent value in a high-quality tool.

The manufacturer's attention to detail is evident in the design and construction of these chisels. The blades, made from fine-grained, tempered chrome-manganese steel and hardened to Rc 59, are precision ground to create a sharp, durable edge. The acute 35-degree angle along the sides of the blades ensures excellent clearance when working in the tight confines of dovetail joints.

The handles, crafted from stained European beechwood, provide a comfortable and secure grip. The addition of the antique brass ferrules not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the chisels but also adds to their durability.

While these chisels come without retail packaging, the lack of unnecessary frills means the focus remains on the tool's performance and quality. Users will appreciate the need to sharpen the blades before use, as it allows them to customize the edge to their specific needs and preferences.

Overall, these chisels from the Czech Republic manufacturer offer an exceptional value for the discerning woodworker. The attention to detail in the design and construction, combined with the high-quality materials used, make these chisels a worthy addition to any tool collection.
