Kirschen Chisel

• Chisel, short, lightweight, according to DIN 5139 with side bevels, with a flattened beechwood handle.

Our chisels (gouges, carving chisels) are hand-forged from a special tool steel. The forging process further enhances the material structure of the Kirschen chisels. The heat treatment in a salt bath achieves a hardness of ± HRc 61 over the entire usable length of the blade, significantly exceeding the requirements of the German DIN. Our self-developed polishing technique creates a scratch-free surface that allows for a smooth cut and easier penetration into the wood. Out of the factory, our chisels are made with a cutting angle of 25°. This angle is excellent for soft to medium-hard woods. However, before the chisels are used for the first time, they should be worked on with a sharpening stone to achieve a razor-sharp edge for initial use. To work successfully with the chisel for many years, we recommend cleaning the tool with a lightly oiled cloth after each use. The oil film applied in this way protects the chisel from moisture and thus from rust. This significantly extends the lifespan and enjoyment of the tool.
