does the job. on Chisels

Stanley continue to make good standard wooden chisels at a reasonable price. It came almost ready to use. Since I was making a pretty good piece of furniture, I wanted the edges to be as precise and sharp as possible. Just a little effort with the terribly sharp system led to this result. The job I used this chisel on was white oak. Previous experience with this 1/2" bit's big brother has been with white pine. Neither of these applications were particularly harsh on the tools, but when I was done with a few cuts there were a few tiny nicks on the edges of each. White oak medium hardness. There are no white pines. Didn't expect any burrs. However, they did their job and I expect they'll stay up for future projects. And for the money, it wasn't an investment in heirlooms or "designer" tools. , hence I would recommend them for everyday work.

Pros
  • Fine Wooden Chisels
Cons
  • Expensive
