Bench Chisels That Hold Their Edge
Featuring a razor-sharp, durable chisel blade made with Japanese high-carbon steel and a heavy-duty Japanese oak handle that offers excellent wear resistance from repeated blows with a hammer, our traditional Japanese bench chisels, or oire nomi, are designed to meet the everyday demands of your workshop.
The chamfered blade provides less resistance than Western chisels, which makes it easier to achieve professional results.
