LV dovetail chisels

[Jim Nardi]

Hi All,

Anyone have the LV japanese dovetail chisels? What do you think of them compared to other japanese chisels you own. My birthday brought 3,6,9 and 12 mm ones. Thanks Jim

Hi Jim, I was using the 3mm on some dovetails in cherry last night. I got it because I needed a narrow chisel (note to self: don't cut pins narrower than your thinnest chisel...). It worked fine, but it's too early to tell if it's a keeper.

It's almost ready to use out of the box. I only stropped it on leather with some honing compound. And the hoops are pre-seated.
