Review: Good quality, excellent if you are willing to put the work in. - When you work out how much you are paying per chisel these are not expensive at all. I would say they are reasonably priced, in the same way as a reasonably priced car on a certain motoring show. I'm not a professional, I'm s fussy DIY'er. so I did need to give the edges some TLC. They are not bad when you get them. I dare say there are those that would use them out of the box. But you can see that they are machine finished with quite accurate edge geometry. How do you sharpen a chisel? there are as many right answers to this as there are experts willing to voice an opinion. And by virtue of that fact they were sharpened exactly correctly. They were just at the point where each crafts-person can make them their own. My way, is by hand on whetstones. Really didn't need much work on the 1000 grit, 6000 took a bit longer, Gave them a micro-bevel and then finished nicely on my strop. A quick with a quick polish on the flat side with the 6000 finished it. Probably 15-20 minutes each to remove those machining marks and to get them to where I want them. If you sharpen yours to a convex curved bevel you are in for a lot of work and maybe some time on the bench grinder. Mine will hopefully never see a bench grinder. They cut the wood with ease, allowing you great control with gentler taps with the mallet. I didn't need the set. I just needed 2 or three of them to replace some of my older ones that have been getting shorter over the years without me really noticing. Now I have them they are there on the tool wall, out of the box and I get that feeling that everything is just right when I look at them. Definitely worth getting the set, at my age they are probably the last ones I'll buy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What country are these made in?**
A: China. But they are fine for site work and softwoods. If you want chisels for hard wood you need to be looking at much more expensive gear.

**Q: Is there any real difference between these and the splitproof ones?**
A: These are made to be used with a metal hammer e.g. a claw hammer the split proof are only suitable for a wooden mallet both sets are made from the same steel and require the same amount of flattening before sharpening.

**Q: Are these blue and yellow like the picture or black and yellow like the customer image??**
A: yep blue and yellow make sure you get the 8 set includes 50mm chisel and get a good leather roll that can hold more than 8 chisels like 12 or 16 so there not cramped together wont tell you what i used to pay for this set 20 years ago but bit more you will need to sharpen them if you are a carpenter joiner but good enough for any DIY or professional again get the 8 set not the 6 and the spare 2 don't have space in the box properly.

**Q: What type of steel are these? O-1, A2 etc?**
A: Just says metal looks like a normal set off chisels to me still good tho

*by S***Z on 12 May 2019*

I was working on making some mortise and tenon jointery for a table I've been constructing. I have some old chisels that I pieced togother over time but they just weren't doing the job even after some sharpening. I needed a great chisel set and fast to finish my project so I did a little research and found the Irwin Marples Chisel set. Irwin has always been good to me so I didnt mind spending the money on one of there more top notch sets. My golly was I right! This chisel set even right out of the box were sharp, clean and an ease to use! I don't know how I was surviving without these in my life for so long lol. Been using them quite a bit latley and they seem to keep there edge pretty well even after beating on them with all my porjects I have. Looking forward to giving these a good sharpening to see what they can really do in the future. If your're looking for a great pair of chisels that will last and get the job done don't look any further. These chisels were right for me and I can guarentee they'll be right for you to!
