The Stanley 16 Series bi-material wood chisel pairs a hardened and tempered chrome carbon steel blade with an impact-resistant bi-material handle. The short series blade design improves control and strength for general carpentry, joinery, and fine paring work.

• Size: 1" blade
• Hardened and tempered chrome carbon steel blade ground for edge retention
• Short series blade design for strength and control
• Lacquered blade finish resists corrosion
• Bi-material handle absorbs impact and resists slippage
• Steel striking cap rated for use with steel-headed hammers
• Blade guard included for edge protection during storage
• 9" overall length

Tip: Hone the bevel before first use - factory edges are ready to work but a quick pass on a 1000-grit waterstone followed by stropping brings the edge to paring sharpness. The steel striking cap lets you drive the chisel with a steel claw hammer; a wooden mallet is gentler on the handle for long mortising sessions.
