Essential Chisel Set with Roll - 6mm, 12mm, 24mm

Where do you start with Japanese bench chisels? We think with this set - a small number of premium high carbon steel edges in the most useful sizes, with a roll to protect them.

We are often told by those dipping a toe in the world of Japanese hand tools that they would love a set of Japanese chisels, but can't justify the expense of a full 10 piece set.

We understand and agree. Most hobbyist woodworkers will only ever use a core number of chisels, so why pay for what you will rarely use?

To that end, we have chosen the three Japanese chisel sizes that we reach for the most - the 24mm, 12mm and 6mm. The keen-eyed will note that these are the closest Japanese chisel sizes to the ubiquitous imperial measurements of 1 inch, half inch and quarter inch, making this set easy to use with plans and drawings from anywhere in the world.

We have also chosen these chisels to be economical. New from Kakuri, these bench chisels feature laminated high carbon steel edges and a beautifully finished white oak handle. These oire nomi (bench chisels) are perfect for the bulk of the chisel work that any workshop will require.

Included in this set is a bench canvas chisel roll with 10 pockets that helps keep everything protected.
