Narex paring chisel, 1/2". Substantially thicker in cross section than traditional paring chisels, they have a length and heft that permit accurate registration with the work and control through the cut.
Forged from silicon-chrome steel (Rc58-60), the 9-1/2" long blade tapers from 9/32" thick at the shoulder to 7/32" thick next to the 20° bevel. The bevel-edged sides reduce sidewall friction in tight recesses. Fitted with a brass-plated steel ferrule, the hornbeam handle is generously sized for good grip; the 1/4" and 1/2" sizes have smaller-diameter handles to maintain correct balance.
