Grizzly has a set of 10 Japanese chisels for $130.00. Other than the 1/8" chisel I would like to have a set like this. The question is, does anyone have these chisels and how do they like them?:confused:
I like the idea of the back of the chisels being "hollowed" out on the back. Seems like there would be less area for friction when cutting mortices and squaring corners. That's just my impression as I have no real experience with chisels other than the Crftsmn's that I currently have.
Are there other better deals out there that I am unaware of? Are their other sets, maybe smaller, that makes more sence to own as a first complete set? I'd still like to finish my Crftsmn set out to use as general banging chisels.:rolleyes:
