Nice to work with. good for me

I got a couple of spring loaded hinges and they are thicker than regular ones. Of course I had to get the right tools to install them properly. Not having any chisels, I figured I would go with the set of 4 for the price rather than a single. The chisels worked great on cleaning out the wood to accept the new hinges. Now, of course, I have to get the tools to keep them sharp. Can never have enough good tools.

Pros
  • For the price, can't beat them. They aren't top shelf but all you need unless all you do is hand work.
Cons
  • The handle may be uncomfortable to grip for extended periods

With a little work, they shave hairs

I bought these chisels a little over a year ago. I didn't want to buy an expensive set without practicing first.I didn't use them much, they were sharpish out of the package. They had tool marks on all the faces and weren't "polished." Well, this week I got a new diamond stone sharpener and strop. I started flattening the backs of the chisels. It took a long time. They are concave along the backs. So both the tips and up near the handle had to be nibbled down. It took a "long time." Probably an

Pros
  • Sharp enough for intended use.
Cons
  • May not be corrosion-resistant

Good Enough ? for my opinion

I bought these based on reviews with skepticism. That being said, right out of the package, for a amateur wood worker or carver, they may be good enough. Of course you can’t compare the feel and finish of these to chisels for under $20 /set for chisels that cost $60 each. Out of the box I will have to hone and strop a proper edge on them, but, I do that on and chisel or carving gouge I get new.I also hone or strop all my chisels before each use.I wanted a set of chisels I could keep on my…

Pros
  • Sharp enough out of the box. Sharpened on a stone at 25 degrees and they were excellent. Nice.
Cons
  • May require additional sharpening before first use

Mixed Feelings in my review

My experience with these chisels has been somewhat of a mixed bag. My main takeaways from a few weeks of work are that they sharpen quite easily and are easy and comfortable to use, but they dull quickly and are prone to chipping.Pros:- Sharpen easily- Easy to use- No noticeable hotspots in the handCons:- I have to resharpen them quite often, sometimes in the middle of a single session- They seem to chip really easilyOne of the pictures above shows someone hitting one of these chisels with a…

Pros
  • works great, sharp
Cons
  • Beech handles may not be as durable as other handle materials

Questionable Out of the Box

Received the 4 pcs. Grebstk Professional Wood Chisel set today. I think the term "professional" is a stretch, and I'm sure a professional could use them, but would probably choose another chisel if given the option. The handles look like red oak but feel uncharacteristically light in my hand. The steel . . . sorry . . . metal rings around the handles are loose, spin around the end a bit and I fear they could eventually fall off. Are they supposed to be like that? The rings close to the blades…

Pros
  • Nice for a beginner. Handy bag to included to store.
Cons
  • May leave rough surfaces or damage the wood if not used correctly

The bottom of this tool is wood I tlthought the bottom would be metal for hammering, the wood will likely split within a few good uses.

Pros
  • Durable chrome vanadium steel construction offers excellent edge retention
Cons
  • The product may not be covered by a comprehensive warranty or guarantee

Good for the price on my review.

These chisels are great for the price. I am surprised that the factory finished edge is not very sharp. If you are planing to buy this set, must sharpen them before using them.

Pros
  • Ergonomic beech handles provide a comfortable grip for extended use
Cons
  • May require additional protective equipment for safe use

Cost efficient. - my new review

If there's one thing I would like us a sharper edge. Some of us wood workers don't have sharpening skills. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • The chisel sets are especially great for trimming down wood, trimming. The GREBSTK brand chisel sets are suitable for amateur and professional carpenter or wood work artist woodworking jobs.
Cons
  • May not be as easy to find replacement parts or accessories

Might be better as mortise chisels

Bought my set a few months ago, and finally got around to honing them.I free-sharpened to 400 grit, then stropped to "scary sharp". Slicing wood was no problem, and left shiny, smooth cuts, and wood curls.Some things I noticed:- The edge bevel is rough ground to about 30 deg, rather than the normal 25 that all my other chisels are set to. This makes the cutting edge more stout, but reduces it's fiber-slicing capabilities.- The sides are very square, with the side bevels very high, about 1/8 to…

Pros
  • The premium quality materials used ensure long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance
Cons
  • The chisels may require regular cleaning to avoid build-up of debris or dust

Buen producto. Relación costo beneficio perfecta.

Los formones han salido muy buenos. Lo único para mejorar es que no vienen escuadrados y hay que dedicarle un tiempo para corregirlos.

Pros
  • these tools are exactly what I wanted, no complaints.
Cons
  • Not suitable for beginners or those new to woodworking

Not at all sharp and incorrect bevel angle

Chisels are basically useless out of the box won't cut anything without creating more problems than they solve. Setting a proper 25 degree bevel takes hours on a 220 dmt due to the factory set bevel being closer to 35. Probably a much better deal if you have a bench grinder to true them up with but definitely not for a beginner.

Pros
  • Muy feliz con la compra. Sirve para la talla y el trabajo artesanal con la madera.
Cons
  • The chisels may be difficult to control during use

I haven't used them that much. The the negative I noticed is the ring is loose. But I could always epoxy them if I need. For the price, and a practice set,. It's a no brainer. I'm all about bang for the buck. This set delivers. I always get things on sale. I can always sharpen or tweak them as needed. This is a great first or extra set for anyone. The carry case/ bag is a great bonus !

Pros
  • The chisels are easy to sharpen for long term use
Cons
  • The set may not be suitable for use in damp or humid environments

Good buy at a good price

I have only started to use them but so far so good. They feel and look as expected, they are easy to use, sharp and seem to do the job well. Good buy at a good price.

Pros
  • The chisels are lightweight and easy to maneuver
Cons
  • The set may not be suitable for those with ethical concerns about using certain types of wood

Great value: my feedback

Great chisels. They are delivered sharp, but will need to be finished off to get that easy "wood shaving sharp”. I have zero complaints. Sooner or later you will have to learn to sharpen your hand tools properly, if you have aspirations of doing wood working. Same goes with the hand planes. So buy these chisels and a set of sharpening stones, you need the stones anyway.

Pros
  • The blades come slightly oiled, which helps to protect against corrosion. Each chisel has a black plastic edge guard to protect the tips from damage and to protect everything else in your toolbox from getting nicked or scratched.
Cons
  • The set may not include a variety of different chisel shapes

Chisel set. Quality poor

Chisels have burrs on surface. Good quality would be smooth. These are not good quality. I shouldn’t need to sand the burrs off.

Pros
  • Chisels are in the following sizes: 1/4 inch, 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, 1 inch. Packaging keeps the chisels separate so they don't hang on each other in transit.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for commercial or industrial woodworking applications

Expect to modify after purchase

For the price, these are good. But, expect roughly finished metal, with sharp corners and chipped blades. Wood that's covered in lacker, making a slippery grip, and the metal bands on the handles are all loose. Do not expect to use out of the box. I recommend refinishing the handles, and cleaning up the blades.At least these came sharp out of the box, but the chips in the blade will leave ridges in my woodwork, so I will have to reform and resharpen the blades before doing more delicate work.If

Pros
  • The sharpness of the chisels allows for increased accuracy and less effort while working
Cons
  • The chisels may require frequent adjustment or fine-tuning

Quality chisels for my opinion

This is a really nice set of wood chisels. The metal is quality material, the chisels are sharp, and the handles are solid and feel great. I appreciate the soft case that came with this set to keep the chisels from getting tossed around or banged up by other tools in my toolbox. Very satisfied with these chisels.

Pros
  • Good product, price a little high
Cons
  • The set may be too heavy for some users
