STANLEYChisel Set, 150 Series, Short Blade, Wood, 3-Piece (16-150)

An awesome starter set of chisels for any aspiring wood worker. I bought these as my first set to learn on and I am very happy with them. I have since learned how to sharpen woodworking tools and these chisels can take a great edge. I have attached photos of the edges I have attained and a video demonstration of these edges.I have also attached photos that include the dimensions of the various chisels included.Included in this set is a 1", 3/4", and a 1/2" chisel.Pros:*Super great price*Can take a razor fine edge*Edges last a while*Three convenient sizes includedCons:*NoneAdditional Considerations:When you get chisels you will need to flatten the back and hone them right away. I personally use the following diamond plate stones for sharpening:  Ultra Sharp II Diamond Sharpening Stone Kit - Coarse/Medium/Extra Fine After sharpening I use  Green Chrome Oxide Compound, 6 oz.  applied to  Trend U*DWS/HP/LS Honing Compound Leather Strop  in order to strop the blade to a mirror finish at 15000 grit. That is how I get the blade seen in the video I attached. When it comes to hand tools always keep them sharp!Overall: 5/5 stars (>=.5 rounds up, <.5 rounds down) => 5 starsIf you have any further questions regarding the product in my review please leave a comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

These chisels are top notch....Anyone wanting a economical chisel shouldnt hesitate with this purchase... I have used this product for several years.When I was a framer (carpenter) I carried one of these in my pouch for all sorts of things... the handles on these things are pretty much indestructable. I have pounded on them with a waffle head of a 24oz framing hammer with NO PROBLEMS... Some of the reviews ive read make me wonder if people are just trying to run down somebody elses products to better their own.. I mean REALLY!!!... LOOK AT THE PRICE PEOPLE!!!!I bought this set for my workshop that I am now putting together and I recieved them and did a "test run".... They are super sharp right out of the package and are the same grade Ive been getting for years. If a person wants to have a pretty set of chisels to hang on the wall and never use....then I dont know what to tell you LOL.... I think they look ok too though.... But for what its worth...I strongly recommend these as good "workhorse" chisels.... buy them with confidence and enjoy them....By the way...to some of the other reviewers...I have never seen a wood chisel that didnt need sharpening from time to time...

Can't complain at all at the performance. Used a belt sander to create an edge, then automotive sanding paper (400 - 3000 grit) to sharpen and put a microbevel on the blade, 20-30mins for each blade on prep, and they've been great so far. They don't hold an edge that long, but at $10 it's better than I expected.I've touched up the microbevel 2 times in the 6 months on the most heavily used of the chisels at moderate DIY use, and the other 2 need their first touch up at the moment. Once you create a micro bevel, they are extremely sharp, and work well for everything I've done with them.These would be great for a beater set of chisels you can toss around and not worry too much about, but for me on a budget they've completed every task with ease as long as they're properly sharpened.

Very impressive set of chisels. I am going to be ordering one or two more sets so I will never have to buy another set of chisels. Ever. Out of the package and onto the bench they went. I have never seen a blade slice through a piece of wood like these things do. I looked at the expensive sets, I watched every single youtube video in which they featured chisels. I found the comments on this set of Stanley's about how they are sharp right out of the package and figured for $10 it was worth finding out if they were true. Sure enough, I have no only completed a number of projects since receiving them but I have had sufficient blood loss to warrant a review on Amazon. One word of advice.. Keep your hands behind the chisel. While rounding off the curvature of a piece, the chisel slipped and... well look, let's just say the next time I go hunting I am leaving the skinning knife at home and taking my trusty chisel set with instead.

I bought these as kind of a "just in case" purchase when I was building a wine and glass rack for my sister for Christmas. I don't have a lot of tools, and these were inexpensive, so I added them. And they SAVED MY ASS. I don't have a planer, or a router, or a band saw, or a table saw. I built the wine rack with a jigsaw, and in some of the curves, I just couldn't get the three supports to be equal in width. I ended up C-clamping them together and scraping them down manually with these chisels. They are extremely sharp and hold their edge well, and helped me cut through almost an eighth of an inch of wood to get the three pieces to be identical. The varied sizes helped me to level them out after I'd properly marred the surfaces, and provided a good result that I could then sand down to soft smoothness.Needless to say, these were a critical purchase, and for their price, I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't own a set. Thanks, Stanley.

The metal they used was not meant to be a knife. Through normal use on wood, its showing dings that I cannot just sharpen out. On top of that the remainder of the blades are dull. Great while they were sharp and new, but need replacing quickly.

I ordered these last night. They were delivered this morning. I replaced the hardware in my dresser. The drawers were constantly falling off the track. My friend came over last night and installed new tracks. Only problem we have is the dresser has wood in the way of the tracks. So these will work nicely to chisel the wood away and make clearance for the track to move freely opening and closing the drawers.

Buena calidad

Well sharped!

Used to put hinges on new door and add patch hole no issues. Nice and sharp out of the box almost didn’t need a hammer.As always working as required is the best compliment to give this product.

nice short handles make intricate work easier; strong too. The blade sizes are right for many, many jobs. Five stars
