Bevel edge chisels are the most versatile and widely used of all bench chisels and are the most absolutely essential of woodworking tools. Sorby makes them in 2 styles - the Traditional Bevel Edge and the Gilt Edge. Gilt Edge Chisels are refined chisels that have a more elegant bolster and ferrule design than the Traditional Bevel Edge. Available here in smooth handles rosewood. They have 5-3/5" long blades and an overall length of 10-1/2".
All Sorby chisel blades are forged from a special alloy Sheffield steel that has a perfect balance of toughness, edge retention, and sharpness. Precision grinding ensures backs that are truly flat and bevels that are crisp and accurate.
Each chisel is ground to a 20 degree bevel, with a 25 degree secondary bevel, then honed ready for use. As evidenced by the indentation point in the face, every blade is individually diamond hardness tested to ensure blade quality. England
