Japanese high speed steel has a finer structure than the steel found in western chisels and because of this can be made much harder, around Rc-66 as opposed to Rc-61, and will hone to a far sharper, finer edge. As these chisels are built for heavy duty work, the blades are mounted on longer handles, increasing the reach of the chisel. The handles are made from solid red oak and feature a forged steel reinforcing band at the top. A long tang and tapered ferrule ensure the blade is held securely in the handle and gives these chisels a solid feel in use. Sold as an individual 9mm chisel.
