Pfeil Swiss Made - Bench Chisel
Pfeil chisels feature hornbeam handles and chrome vanadium tool steel
Dec 01, 1999
I have several friends who own Pfeil carving tools, and they think Pfeil tools are the greatest, so I was looking forward to trying out this Swiss-made chisel. It may be a small point, but this chisel’s large-diameter round handle keeps the blade from touching the bench at any point. I found that the chisel was always rolling around on the bench, something that none of the other tools did. This chisel ranked below all others in the toughness test. The tool scored an “average” on the toughness test.. The price is for set of four.
