Then rest the chisel handle in your palm and use the thumb of your other hand to steady and guide the blade. Clear the background in light, overlapping passes, working from the outline outwards and keeping the bevel low. Angle the blade slightly as you push to create a slicing cut, which leaves a smoother surface than pushing straight ahead. Keep the corners of the edge just clear of the surface so they don't dig in. 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text-md leading-[24px] font-regular pt-[9px] pb-0.5\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd the Narex PROFI Palm Carving Clearing Chisel (6mm) to your cart today for clean backgrounds, crisp edges and burr-free finishing detail, and craft with confidence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NAREX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67700432142611,"sku":"NRX-823700","price":29.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2727\/5283\/files\/NRX-823700-01.jpg?v=1792993036","url":"https:\/\/www.carbatec.com.au\/products\/narex-profi-palm-carving-clearing-chisel-sweep-6mm","provider":"Carbatec","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
