This is a spring-grip, pound-through wood chisel designed for struck woodworking tasks where a robust cutting edge and a handle capable of accepting hammer blows are required. The chisel measures 140 mm overall length with a 38 mm cutting width, making it suitable for paring, mortising and general benchwork where a wider blade is needed to remove larger sections of timber cleanly.

The blade is forged from chrome‑vanadium (Cr‑V) alloy steel and is heat treated and tempered to provide a durable cutting edge; typical hardness after treatment is in the HRC 56–60 range which balances edge retention and toughness. The cutting face is finished as a bright polished edge to give a smooth initial cut and ease of sharpening. The pound‑through handle design features a reinforced full steel tang and an integrated striking cap so the chisel can be struck with a mallet or hammer without damage to the handle; the external handle sleeve has a spring‑grip overmould to reduce vibration and improve grip comfort under impact. This tool is manufactured to relevant DIN/ISO/BS hand‑tool requirements where applicable for consumer and trade woodworking chisels.

Typical applications include timber framing, door and window rebate work, kitchen fitting, joinery and carpentry where a struck chisel is required to remove waste quickly. The chisel is commonly used across furniture making, site carpentry and restoration works, and by tradespeople who need a robust struck chisel for repetitive chopping and levering tasks.

Key benefits include excellent edge strength from the Cr‑V steel and heat treatment, a bright polished edge that eases initial cutting and sharpening, and a pound‑through handle that offers reliable impact resistance and improved vibration control via the spring grip. The chisel is compatible with standard wooden and rubber mallets and will fit typical woodworking vises for secure paring and levering.
