Pfeil Carpenters Chisel

Pare and Chop with Precision Using a Swiss-Made Carpenter's Chisel

When your joinery calls for clean paring cuts and confident chopping, the Pfeil Carpenter's Chisel gives you the edge and balance to work with control. Each blade is forged from K 510 steel and hardened to 60 Rc, so it takes a keen edge and holds it through demanding bench work. The sides are relief-angle ground with well marked facets, letting you reach cleanly into dovetails and tight corners, while the finely ground and polished blade keeps friction low as you pare.

A 25 degree blade angle strikes a practical balance between a keen edge and lasting durability across a range of timbers. The octagonal oval handle is turned from strong, oiled Swiss elm, shaped to sit comfortably in your hand and stop the chisel rolling off the bench.
