Narex Richter Bevel Edge Chisel Set of 5

Very nice chisels. Smooth handles, good feel. Weight is great. Ive got big hands, xl size. These chisels fit my hands perfectly. I believe would also fit smaller and larger hands too. The metal feels nice and smooth. The smaller sized ones are very sharp out of the box. 19mm and 25mm not quite as sharp but serviceable. I usually sharpen chisels when i recieve them anyway so no issues. Good box, looks nice and solid. Pleased with these tools.

These are very good chisels for the money, easily up to professional standards. They feel good in the hand and have only slight edges so can get into tight corners. I've had quite a few chisels over the years and these are some of the best. They require sharpening out of the box, but minimal work overall compared to other expensive chisels I've owned. Overall I'm very happy with the quality and value for money. To be honest I wouldn't bother getting Lie Nielsen, I'd save a few pounds and get these instead.

The steel is definitely tough and it stays sharp. The handles are made from ash however, and its a bit soft for not having a collar at the top. My wood mallet digs into the grain at the top of the chisel handle and I wonder how long before the damage is severe.

Quality. When you get them in your hand! You just know !

Excellent customer service and quality product.

They say you get what you pay for. Can’t fault these chisels. They are very comfortable to handle. Great looking tools.

Narex are known as a fine engineering company and this chisel set is typical of that history. Very nicely presented in the box, blades are flat, ground and polished to 25 deg and overall excellent quality. I put a 30 deg secondary bevel on them and they performed great with no further work required. Highly recommended.

Love these chisels,not used on any major projects yet will update in time.

A penas he utilizado alguno y, además, no los he afilado, sino tal como vienen. Parecen de buena calidad como es de esperar por ese precio. ¿merecen la pena?; seguramente con otros más baratos se puede conseguir lo mismo o casi; eso sí, habrá que afilarlos más a menudo. La caja la recibí con un pequeño desperfecto que afectaba a la cerradura, seguramente a causa de un golpe durante el transporte. Amazon me hizo un descuento que es muy de agradecer. Yo mismo pude arreglarla y ha quedado bien y no se nota mucho.

These took very little lapping to bring the back to absolute flatness (any new chisel will take some) especially compared to standard Narex. They stay sharp way longer than standard Narex, without much fuss honing on diamond plates/compound. They take a blistering sharp edge when honed and stropped on green compound. The primary bevel being a few ticks under 25 degrees makes for easy paring cuts including in end grain but didn't exhibit the tendency to chip harder steel sometimes do when I tested busting through some glue lines and knots. Bevelled edges taper down to minimal lands which along with the slim cross section make for easy access into most recesses. Compared to a lie nielsen, which is about 50% thicker at the base, it's hard not to feel like the slimmer cross section of these Narex might be more delicate but, in use, I have not noticed a difference in flex or deflection perhaps owing to the greater hardness of the steel, which typically comes with greater stiffness. Perhaps it's the best of both worlds where they can probably take the abuse but the feel reminds me not to be ham fisted. The handle too is well shaped and finished and most comfortable in a push/paring grip, as opposed to optimized for chopping down grip like a stanley 750 or lie nielsen, but works well for all bench chisel tasks/orientations. Your grip preferences, more than anything else, may determine whether you simply like or love these as that feel in hand is a very personal and subjective. Summary: Good fit and finish. Steel is great. Shape is comfortable and versatile. Feel in hand should be good to great, depending on preferences. Value is unmatched as I haven't used anything comparable that doesn't cost 50%-100% more.

Le pongo solo 4 estrellas porque el paquete llego medio rasguñado en los cinceles, considero que deben enviar el paquete mejor embalado. En el caso de los cinceles sabemos que Naxter en esta edición es solo calidad.

Great looks, great performance and a pretty good price. Unless you're to spend a lot more, these will do lost ofnwhat you want or need.

High quality chisels!
