Craftsmen bought\r\nchisel blades then fashioned their own handles to meet their specific needs.\r\nThis made perfect sense as who better suited to make wood chisel handles than\r\ncraftsman. Craftsman were able to make handles that better fit their hands,\r\nwere designed for the task at hand and that used whatever wood was readily\r\navailable. A custom handle can be turned on the lathe from your favorite wood\r\nin a few minutes. Even without a lathe, a handle can be quickly shaped using a\r\nrasp, chisel, drawknife or spokeshave. These unhandled chisel blades are\r\nmanufactured by Narex in the Czech Republic and are of exceptional quality.\r\nNarex is regarded worldwide as a premier edge tool manufacturer. These blades\r\nare made from fine-grained chrome-manganese steel that is first drop forged\r\nand then hardened and tempered to a Rockwell hardness of 59. These blades are\r\neasily sharpened and hold an exceptional edge. The blades are accurately CNC\r\nground with slimmer cross section sidewalls that are just 1.4 mm or .040”\r\nwide. These slimmer sideways allow reach into tight spaces, making them\r\nperfect for dovetailing. Bevels are ground to 25 degrees. For optimal\r\nperformance the backs will need flattened and the bevels sharpened. Blanks\r\ncome with square, untapered tangs. The tang hole must be properly sized to\r\nensure a tight fit without splitting the handle. In general, a 3\/8” pilot hole\r\nworks well for most American hardwoods such as hickory, maple, ash and oak.\r\nThis hole size may need to be reduced for softer woods or enlarged for harder\r\nexotics. Blanks come with a solid brass ferrule and a leather shock washer.\r\nBrass ferrules have an OD of 0.750, ID of 0.667” and height of 0.667”. The\r\nferrules have inside bevels for easy insertion and are properly annealed\r\n(hardened) to prevent splitting when tangs are driven into the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\r\n \u003cli\u003eThese unhandled chisel blades are manufactured by Narex in the Czech Republic and are of exceptional quality.
