Well made and sharp
I purchased this for working on guitars. Specifically getting CA glue off the fingerboard when I have to glue frets down. As with any chisel, you have to be careful but it serves the purpose.The handle is substantial but not too big and it’s comfortable in the hand.

Strong handle
I ordered this chisel to replace the handle with a slick handle to make a jointers slick. I can attest to the handleâs strong construction. Took a hack saw and several dozens plows with a four pound sledge on the anvil to get the handle of the tang.

metal seems easy to dent
over all, good chisel

Continuous tang through handle, better than other 2″ wide chisels.
Strong tool for carpentry and garden use. Much better than other chisels with longer reach and the critical design being the metal of the blade is one piece through the handle. This is a wide chisel and takes lots of impact to drive into wood, so this is really important! An upgrade from fine woodworking chisels which cannot be used for framing, cutting small trees away from fences in a suburban yard, etc. I am laying insulation in my garage and house attic and sheathing with plywood. In order to lay the house commercial power wiring under the plywood I need to cut shallow trays into the deck framing, maybe 1/2″ deep and 2″ wide, then using nailing stops, those little metal plates over the wire once laid. The force to cut dozens of these in ceiling attic framing will destroy a plastic handled chisel. To for household use I would recommend this one. Funny, not carried at local big box retailers like Home Depot or Lowes, or local wood working carpentry tool supply store. Good luck, and thank you for reading.

Right Choice
Irwin did a great job with this chisel. I used it to build a deck and put it through a beating. It did its job and already paid for its self. It was sarp out of the package and kept a decent edge throughout the project. Needs a sharpening now but it is expected considering what I put it through. Definitely recommend it.

I’ve only ever used it on soft wood (pine) so far and its done exactly as I hoped. The edge is very even so it’s not some uber cheap tool like some other things I’ve ordered from amazon. I don’t know how good the steel quality is as I’m not a professional, seems great for someone like me who justs needs it a few times a year for light work around the house.
