I have two LN chisels and like them so much I am going to get a set, but I am going to buy them one every month or so since there is no set discount. I'm in the process of making the doors to the tool chest I've been working on for two years. I want to make a hanger for these chisels in the door and need the measurement of the sockets for the larger chisels. I have the 1/8 and 1/4 and they are both 5/8". Could one of you please measure the 3/4" socket for me. Thanks,

Dennis,

I checked them all and the steel socket outside diameter is about .6 " which is a little more than 5/8"....The first wood knuckle is about 3/4 and pretty consistent regardless of chisel size.

Thank you Mark, I appreciate that. I realize I made a mistake in my original post. I can't tell the difference between inside and outside on my caliper.

Dennis, although there's no set discount, it is cheaper due to shipping costs, about $6 per tool IIRC.
