Review on πŸ”ͺ Enhanced Vanadium Sharpening with Aral Chisel by Brock Chisholm

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The jury is out. Best in chisels

I'm hesitating between 3 and 4 stars for this set. I'll give it a 4 for now. Firstly, it took forever for them to finally ship. On arrival I'm not sure what to think, they weren't very sharp when they came out of the box but they appear to be decent steel. There are no chips or pores in the metal. The metal is very dense and heavy. However, the extremely light grips are much lighter than expected. Very unbalanced. I agree that the handles are wood, not steel. But it feels like the handles are hollow. So it looks a bit strange. I'll play with them and see how they behave. The whetstones provided are rubbish, don't even try to use them. Although the case is very beautiful.

Pros
  • Convenient storage: chisel sets in wooden box
Cons
  • not sure
