The blade is forged from a special alloy Sheffield steel, offering an ideal balance of toughness, edge retention, and sharpness. Precision grinding ensures perfectly flat backs and crisp, accurate bevels. Each chisel is ground to a 20-degree bevel with a 25-degree secondary bevel and honed, ready for immediate use. Every blade undergoes individual diamond hardness testing to guarantee quality. Blade lengths vary from 5" to 7", with overall chisel lengths ranging from 10-1/2" to 13-1/2".
