Blue Spruce 3-Piece Mortise Chisel Set
Blue Spruce Toolworks’ entire family of Chisels blend form and function into a tool that's a joy to use and a delight to admire. Our mortise chisels are no exception. They share many features with the rest of the Blue Spruce chisel family…cryogenically treated A-2 steel blades that have been lapped perfectly flat and polished to a mirror-finish. The bevels are expertly ground and carefully hand-sharpened. But while most Blue Spruce chisels focus on finesse, these mortise chisels are all about power and strength.
Blue Spruce Chisels: Lapped and polished, perfectly flat, surgically sharp... and stunningly beautiful.
In other mortise chisels, the wooden handle acts as a shock absorber between your mallet and the blade. In Blue Spruce Mortise Chisels, the striking cap has a direct connection to the cutting edge through a central steel core. All the energy of your strike is delivered to the cut. The blades are taller than they are wide (except the 1/2", which is square) and we carefully grind the sides of the blades parallel to each other. This profile guides your cut in the right direction...straight.
Every figured maple handle goes through a proprietary infusion process that dramatically increases its durability. The result is the toughness of a composite handle with the beauty of natural wood. Skilled craftsmen buff each handle by hand resulting in a lustrous finish that stands up to daily use.
The blades extend 4-1/2" beyond the ferrule and the handles are 4-3/4" long. The primary bevels are ground to 30° and hand-hone a 35° micro bevel. The ferrule and striking cap are turned from stainless steel on state-of-the-art CNC Swiss lathes. And the infused figured Maple handle is nearly bulletproof. The components all come together to create a well-balanced tool that just feels right in your hand and will look as good as it works for generations to come.
The Blue Spruce 3-Piece Mortise Chisel Set includes 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" chisels with Resin-Infused Curly Maple handles.
