I have some Narex chisels as well as other brands. I think the Narex chisels are good.

Nice surprise, Narex are good chisels.

My package came via UPS today. A 12-20 die, A 10-28 tap & die, the tap is an extra and was ordered just to meet the minimum purchase of $25.

The 10-28 die was already put to use to make a screw to replace a broken one from a #42X saw set.

Oooo nice! I have a set of these too, except the wood is darker. Love 'em.

These have never been used....so, I may need to hone them a bit? Factory grinds....25 degree bevel....Feels like a lacquer finish on the steel. They do like to roll across a flat surface, though. Will have to keep an eye on that....

Is there a difference between the darker wood handles, and these lighter ones?

I have a couple of those - one light wood and one dark. They work just fine. No idea what the difference in color means - if anything. Enjoy!

Have since flattened the backs a bit.....bevels needed a little touch-up....they are now in the shop, awaiting the next project.
