Freud WC110 10-Piece Woodworkers Chisel Set

by Freud

Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Like Freud's saw blades and router bits, their woodworking chisels are known for superior quality. Made in Italy, this set comes in a beautiful wood case and every chisel is sharp right out of the box. The all-chrome-vanadium blades hold their edges and the classy-looking contoured handles are comfortable to hold and made of stained wood. These chisels are for handwork--ideal for shop use and fine finish carpentry--and are not intended for whacking with a hammer; framing carpenters should look to another brand. Treat them well and these tools will last a lifetime. --Brian Trinen

From the Manufacturer

Made from chrome-vanadium steel with rare boxwood handles for a lifetime of durability and top performance. Each handle is bound by steel hoops to add strength and prevent mushrooming.

The freud set compares well with the Marples and the Footprint sets that I have. Although the Freud set is Chrome Vanadium steel, compared to the Sheffield steel of my other chisels, they sharpened very well out of the box, and they seem to hold an edge as well as the other sets. For a ten piece set, the price was outstanding, and the set also came very nicely boxed. I haven't cut any dovetails yet, but I like the low profile for the outside edge, it should make cutting the pins very smooth. I highly recommend this set.

I was hit with a late minute Christmas List and knowing my Son, who takes pride in his wood working tools.
I was in the market for a "good" Woodworkers Chisel Set when I came across this set which was highly recommended to purchase if I saw it. And not to mention the price$$$...
Thank you so much! It will make my Son's Christmas when he receives this gift...

Though not the most expensive you can find, for the price I know I will get my use out of these chisels. This will be the lifetime set I will surely take care of. And now I am planning to get the gouges to match (and make a case for each.)
