Another pair of skew chisels

[Ken Werner]

I really like rescuing chisels from oblivion. I found this pair of Greenlees in the dark basement at an estate sale. They were pretty rough, and have these ugly plastic Greenlee handles that are sort of growing on me. Anyway, I've been wanting a pair of 3/8" [and 1/4"'] skew chisels for half blind dovetails. These were perfect. A bath in Evaporust, then some grinding and honing, and here they are:

Those look great Ken! I just ordered a pair of AI 3/8 skews and expexting them any day now.

Great second life you've given those chisels, Ken, and I see what you mean about the green color, I kinda like it, too!

I really like the green plastic handles, too. Make me think of emeralds and grass and Ireland!
