Hardly any tool is as essential to a woodworker's tool collection as a high quality set of bench chisels. The mirror polished blades of these chisels are made with the best available German Chrome Vanadium steel and are hardened to a Rockwell hardness (Rc) of 61. This level of hardness means they will retain their keen edge much longer than ordinary chisels. The comfortable handles are made of tough European hornbeam and have steel reinforcement hoops at both top and bottom. Individual sizes available in light colored handles only. Germany
About MHG Tools
Manufactured by MHG Messerschmidt of Germany, these impressive chisels are the equal or better of any European made chisel on the market. Like their competing German made counterparts, MHG chisels are forged, hardened, and machined to demanding German DIN manufacturing standards.
Though their cost is not low, the price is not at all unreasonable. We are confident that you will find the quality, performance, and durability of MHG chisels to be well worth the investment.
While many European made chisels have fractional sizes printed on the blade, a large percentage of them are actually made to the roughly equivalent metric size. Quite uniquely, MHG is making chisels for the American market in true fractional sizes.
