Kirschen Chisel

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

Our chisels (gouges, carving tools) are hand-forged from a special tool steel. The forging process further improves the material structure of the Kirschen chisels. The heat treatment in a salt bath achieves a hardness of ± HRc 61 throughout the entire usable length of the blade, which is significantly above the requirements of the German DIN standard. Our self-developed polishing technique creates a smooth surface free of grooves, allowing for a clean cut and easier penetration into the wood. Our chisels are factory-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 honed with a sharpening stone to achieve a razor-sharp edge. To ensure many years of successful use, 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.
