  • Nice Chisels
The bottom line is that these are very good quality chisels for the price. I've prepared and used the 1" chisel on cherry and pine. No sweat. Then today I pared about 3 feet of 3/8" box joints in padouk. No sweat. The edge held up very well - one slight hone required after doing more than half of them. Out of the box: * The handles are not very aesthetically pleasing, but they are functional. I found them comfortable to work with. I don't like the hard finish - I much prefer an oiled finish. I might be tempted to slightly flatten one of them enough to eliminate rolling, but I'm always a little worried that changes like that will change the comfort. * The grind is pretty rough, and definitely needs to be prep'd before using. I expected that, so I'm not dining the chisels for that. The only chisels that I know of that can be used for woodworking out of the box are from Lee Valley, and cost 5-7 times what the Schaaf chisels cost at full price. Even those need final prepping to work optimally. * The angle on the 1" chisel was 27.5 degrees. That is about perfect for me, as I like a 30 degree angle, and a secondary bevel gets me just about there. * The roll is not the best designed roll that I've ever used, but it is OK. I wouldn't use it without the chisel guards. Prepping the 1" chisel: * The back was very slightly concave. The only chisels I've ever bought that were perfectly flat were from Lee Valley and were considerably more expensive. Given that, if you can't get perfectly flat out of the box, slightly concave is the next best thing. * The machining was pretty rough - rough enough that without prepping, the edge would quickly chip and degrade. I would not use these chisels without prepping them. * I flattened the back by working through the following grits - 220, 1000, 4000, 8000 (all Norton stones) and 15000 (Shapton). It took me about 35 minutes, which is good for me. * Next I put on a preliminary secondary bevel (4000 grit) to see what kind of edge I would get. The bevel was 27.5 degrees, so the secondary was close to 30. This minor honing still left the edge with some minor but noticeable nicks. At that point I reground the bevel a bit (less than a minute) at 1000 grit, and that eliminated the nicks. I then honed a secondary bevel to 15000 grit. * I was able to grind the bevel and hone the secondary bevel by hand, and still end up with a perfectly square edge (as far as I could tell). * Finally, I relieved the edges along the back to make the chisel more comfortable for paring. Update on Prepping: * Today I prepped the other three chisels. All of them were either flat of slightly concave out of the box, so good flatness. * For the first time I used a Work Sharp WS3000 with a coarse grit to flatten the backs. Excellent results in a minute or two per chisel, as opposed to the 10-20 minutes I'm used to with a 220 waterstone. * I then worked through the other grits as described above for the 1" chisel. * As an experiment, I used the WS3000 again, this time with the leather strop wheel, to see if I could get a good polish without rounding the back. Worked great! The backs were as close to dead flat as my eyes can see, and no noticeable rounding at the edge. Comparison - bear in mind that these are subjective comparisons, but I've used all of the chisels mentioned to build stuff. * In general, I ding the Schaaf set for providing just a limited set of 4 chisels. In particular, I'd like to see 1/8", 3/8", and 5/8" chisels. I'd also like to see skew chisels, but lacking that, you could always grind your own from 1/2" chisels if you could buy them individually. * Box store chisels - Craftsman, DeWalt, Buck Bros, etc. I will only use these chisels for rough carpentry where the plastic handles allow for heavy-duty pounding even when the edge gets dull. * At first use, Schaaf chisels seem to be on a par with the old Record blue handle chisels, which were very serviceable for most woodworking tasks. If anything, they were a tad flatter out of the box. The advantage of the Record chisels is that the plastic handles on mine have taken a lot of abuse over the years. As far as I know, you can't buy these new anymore. * Since I'm not a fan of the new generation of blue handle chisels since another company bought the Record brand, I'd rate Schaaf above them. * Woodcraft green handled chisels - I haven't used my set for anything but rough woodworking, but in general they seem similar to the current generation of blue handle chisels. * They seem to be on a par with the new Stanley Sweetheart chisels. I like the feel of the Schaaf handles better. * They hold an edge better that the old octagonal handled Robert Sorby chisels, although nothing feels as good in your hand as that octagonal handle. * Lie Nielsen - Way more expensive, but they are better chisels. I particularly like them for fine, detailed work. They also come in smaller sizes, which I find very handy on occasion. * Lee Valley PMV-11 - Way more expensive, but in my mind the best you can buy. However, you can buy two sets of Schaaf chisels for the price of one PMV-11 chisel. PMV-11 is worth it if you are chopping dovetails all day and need to minimize your sharpening, but if you are an occasional woodworker like me, and are willing to put the work into properly preparing your chisels and keeping them sharp, the Schaaf chisels will do what you need. Bear in mind that you are not buying fully sharpened chisels when you buy this set. You are buying quality steel that will hold up well to demanding woodworking tasks once you have flattened and polished the backs and honed the edge, and you are getting very good value for the price. ... show more

  • Excellent value if you're willing to put in the work.
These are excellent chisels for the price, I want to say that upfront, BUT they are not anywhere close to ready to use out of the box. I ordered these on a whim to see if I'd rather invest money in a good set of western or Japanese chisels. I have to admit I'm pleasantly surprised with how good these are after a few hours of work to get them bench-worthy. All the backs were ground pretty hollow which isn't a huge deal since the hollow was well centered on all but the 1/4" which was pretty lopsided (more on the grinding woes of that particular chisel in a minute.) The bevel grinds were sort of hit and miss, the 1/2" and 3/4" were just about perfect, but the 1" and 1/4" were ground pretty sloppy and took a fair bit of time on the honing plate to get a level edge on. CrV steel is relatively hard so it can be extremely time consuming to correct these kinds of issues without a well dressed grinding wheel. The only real problem was that the 1/4" was so poorly ground that it actually will be impossible for it to take a level edge without doing some major rework to the blade entirely. That being said, you can put a really keen edge on these which will strop to a mirrored razor finish without excessive effort. My process was honing plate 1000 grit > medium Arkansas stone > fine Arkansas stone > strop with green compound. Some reviews squawk about the handle finish, I don't really care. Yes it's thick but some 220 sandpaper and a bottle of boiled linseed oil will take care of it. The wood seems to be of fair quality, some minor imperfections in the wood but I chopped through white oak without any issue or marring of handle. These are not designed to be hit with a regular hammer so make sure you have either a urethane faced hammer or proper wood mallet to use them. As I mentioned I chopped some quick mortises in a piece of white oak to test them, the edge held up fine on all of them. I was able to pare without any issue after chopping. I won't claim the edge retention is excellent because I haven't put them through a full day in the shop to know for sure. In all, these are kind of a steal at less than $50 with the canvas roll. If you're thinking about getting into woodworking I think these are a worthwhile investment and probably punch above their weight price wise. Veritas they ain't, but one PM-V11 chisel costs more than this whole set. I would have given these 5 stars if the 1/4" chisel had been better ground. It wasn't a problem for me but I've been a machinist and toolmaker for almost 20 years so my ability to rework it probably beyond an average person's. ... show more

  • Clean them up and they are wonderful!!
Pros I love the quality of this product and the price for what you get is more than fair. Most importantly the steel is quality and it holds a razor sharp edge. Handles have a nice shape Cons Dull Dull Dull I had to spend some time sharpening them on my 1000 diamond stone and then my leather strop. I did not like the finish on the handles. They were not smooth and finished poorly Had to sand them down and refinished with oil. Overall take a little time to sharpen them and make them your own and you will be quite satisfied with this very affordable chisel set. This set will hold its own against sets that cost substantially more money. ... show more

  • Very impressive
First of all, these arrived in a very impressive packaging. Not that that impacts how they perform, but it said a lot to me about the company and how they feel about their product. I gave these as a gift to woodworking friend. He was impressed with the quality. Sure, you can spend four or five times this amount, and maybe a professional needs to, but my hobby woodworking friend, he was very happy. ... show more
