Narex Ritcher Bevel Edge Chisels offer a premium look and feel for your tools. With over 90 years of hand tool production, Narex continues to improve the quality of their tools using superior materials, advanced heat treatment and continual design development. Named after the founder, Mr Vaclav Richter, these chisels combine the highest-quality production processes with premium materials.
Bevel-edge chisels are versatile tools and extremely useful in woodworking. Whether your project involves cutting, shaping, fitting, or joining, you will reach for one! Some common uses are shaving or slicing small portions of material by hand, a technique called pairing, and carving recesses out by striking the tool with a mallet. To preserve the lifespan of your chisel, it is essential to keep your tool sharp. If you're new to working with chisels or sharpening, we recommend using a honing guide that helps you consistently roll the chisel over your sharpening stone.
The Narex Chisel Blade is forged from high-quality Cr-V steel cryogenically processed and tempered to a minimum of 62HRc. Immediately after hardening, cryogenic treatment cools the steel down to an extremely low temperature, increasing the blade's hardness and durability. Your blade comes finely grounded and polished; the super-thin sides are suitable for even the finest work. The beautiful hard ash wood handle has been sanded and hand-polished and features a solid stainless steel ferrule.
Each chisel is marked with the trademark RITCHER EXTRA.
