Robinson Hall; Sheffield, Chisels.

I purchased these chisels from the UK around 3-4 years ago. I finally got around to sharpening them this morning. They are a good quality steel.

Sharpened to a 25 degree flat primary bevel, with a 30 degree secondary bevel.

Norton Crystolon stone, followed by 3 finer grit water stones was worked on both bevels.

The mirrored finish I was able to achieve from the stropping compound didn't show up clearly within the attached photo's.

I'll be happy to take these Godforsaken ENGLISH chisels off your hands for the price of postage.

William Wallace: Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM! :mrgreen:
