Ashley Iles - Ashley Iles English Pattern Bench Chisel
This chisel features a boxwood handle in the traditional London pattern
Sep 01, 2008
This chisel features a boxwood handle in the traditional London pattern with an octagonal central section. The handle is comfortable but slightly large for the scale of the tool. The back flattened and polished with minimal effort, and the side bevels are nicely softened and tapered to a small flat, which is convenient for working into tight corners.
Ashley Iles chisels are available at The Best Things and Tools for Working Wood.
