Chisel Set

Using it well

• Hone a 25° primary bevel and add a 30° micro-bevel; touch up on a fine stone every 20 minutes of work.
• Pare with the flat back down, not the bevel — it is far easier to control.
• Never pry with a chisel or strike it with a steel hammer; use a mallet.

Reference sample in 3D

The model above is a real walnut reference block rendered in the browser. It is simulated from a height field rather than photographed, so you can rotate it to see how light behaves across the grain, the end grain and the edges. Drag it, or use the view buttons to look at the top face or the end grain in isolation.
