MHG Carpenter's Chisel With Power Grip Hornbeam Handle

 MHG bevel edged carpenter's chisels are designed for bigger sized timber connections where strength and sturdiness is required.   They are intended to be used with a timber mallet. 

The chisel is ground, not polished.  With the latest forging and hardening technology and a chrome vanadium tool steel that is excellently suited for this application, these gouges are manufactured according to DIN standard 5141. 

MHG guarantees a Rockwell hardness of 61 HRC in close tolerances over the entire useful length of the gouge. Each gouge is tested for hardness and edge retention. 

Handle: Hornbeam power grip handle 
Blade: fine ground, sharpened ready for use

The leather washer at the foot of the handle helps to absorb the blows from the mallet.

Overall Length: 320-340mm.  See size comparison picture.

 These chisels reflect the workmanship from a German manufacturer with a long and expert tradition in forging and hardening techniques.

NB: These chisels are sold without the MHG logo on the handle.
