Old and new bevel edged chisels.

There are many things you don't need, but decent tools are something I want. A lot.

Bugbear

Amen to that!

Heck, I'll have to check that now, Alan. Did Sorby really come second? That's a worry... :shock:

Cheers, Alf

I have 2 Sandviks (with the plastic handles). They are comparable to my Pfeils, and also comparable to a couple no-name cheapos that I have. I think they are good but they don't hold an edge too long when I start pounding. I still feel the need, er, want some A2 chisels (sorry to bring up another thread...:wink.

I've got some tyzack chisels :wink:

They look very old and the man said they had been used by a Mr. Sheraton :roll:

Thanks for all the advice and info. My local hardware shop has a pretty good deal on some bahco chisels, with the plastic handles. Might be worth investigating. But I think the way to go is to get one bevel edged chisel for dove-tails and get more if needed, rather than a set.

Thanks again.
