The steel in anchor chains is normally wrought iron and this provides the soft backing in(top) Japanese chisels. Bear in mind quality wrought iron hasn't been made for many years. The slag inclusions, once etched give a pretty pattern ala Damascus.

Whether that means Aldi have re-connected to their old suppliers, I don't know, but the Sellers jobs were Workzone at the time...
The new chisel packs only feature 2 sizes, and look completely different handles, but...?
