Narex PROFI Palm Carving Chisel Graving 4mm

Narex PROFI Palm Carving Chisel (4mm): Smooth Backgrounds, Clean Edges and Precise Finishing Touches

The last few cuts on a relief carving decide how good it looks. A chisel with a rough or burred edge drags across the background, leaves ridges and tool marks, and crumbles the fine edges you've worked hard to define. The Narex PROFI Palm Carving Chisel is handcrafted for professional carvers. Each blade is precisely ground and then lapped on an Arkansas stone, so it arrives burr-free and ready to level surfaces, sharpen up edges and remove material with control.

Add this 4mm flat chisel to your kit for cleaner backgrounds and more confident finishing work.

Key Features

• Flat profile for levelling and finishing: The straight, flat cutting edge cuts smoothly and evenly along a flat surface. It's ideal for levelling relief backgrounds, flattening small areas and leaving a clean, consistent finish.
• Clean edges and controlled material removal: Use the chisel to define crisp edges, square up walls and pare away small amounts of timber exactly where you want. You stay in control right up to your final touches.
• Chrome-vanadium steel blade (61–62 HRc): HRc is a scale that measures how hard steel is. At 61–62 HRc, this blade sits at the high end for woodcarving tools. The heat-treated chrome-vanadium steel holds a keen, stable edge for longer, even in hardwoods.
• Lapped on an Arkansas stone for a burr-free edge: An Arkansas stone is a very fine natural sharpening stone, prized by woodworkers for polishing edges. Each blade is precisely ground, lapped on one, then finished with abrasive paste. You get smooth surfaces without unwanted marks, straight off the tool.
• Handcrafted and ready to use: Each chisel is made by hand and finished to a professional standard. You can start carving straight out of the box, with no sharpening or honing needed first.
• Ergonomic beech wood palm handle: The shaped beech handle sits comfortably in your palm. It gives you a secure grip and fine control over depth and direction. The stained and varnished finish looks as good as it feels.
• 4mm blade width: A small, precise size for working into tight spaces between elements, tidying narrow backgrounds and refining fine detail.
• Protective paper box: Each chisel comes in its own practical paper box, which keeps the edge safe in storage and transport.
• Made by Narex: Narex has decades of experience making quality woodworking hand tools. The PROFI range is their top-of-the-line carving series.

A quick tip: rest the handle in your palm and use the thumb of your other hand to steady and guide the blade. When levelling a background, keep the bevel low and take light, overlapping slicing cuts rather than deep scoops. This leaves a smoother, more even surface. Work with the grain wherever you can, and change direction if you see the fibres lifting. Palm chisels are pushed by hand, so don't strike them with a mallet. A few strokes on a leather strop loaded with honing compound between sessions will keep the edge as clean as the day it arrived.
