Chisels

Chisels are the workhorses of most jointmaking, removing waste to prepare dovetail pins and mortises and tenons for clean fits. We stock the best wood chisels available from fine tool makers like Barr Specialty Tools, Crown Hand Tools, Hirsch Chisels, Iyoroi, Lie-Nielsen, Narex, Stanley, Sorby and several others.

Heavy mortise chisels struck with a mallet are especially good for the fast waste removal required for chopping mortises. Bevel edge chisels are generally used for vertical or horizontal paring to a line where exact control is required.

Whether you are looking for a beginner chisel set or adding another fine chisel to your stable, the large selection of European and Japanese style chisels we offer will meet your needs.
