and precision for accurate chiselling work. All the blades are forged using a unique steel formula into a one-piece I-beam construction for strength and rigidity with a robust profile for extreme breaking strength and a design that maximises power transmission downwards through the tool. Additional features include an ergonomic Santoprene handle with an impact resistant nylon striker that can be replaced when worn down. The entire blade, including the handle, can be placed flat against the surface which allows you to cut parallel to a flat surface. All the chisels are supplied with holsters that protect the cutting edge to prevent damage or the possible injury when handling in toolboxes.

The environmentally-friendly material is naturally anti- bacterial, as well as mould and odour resistant, so it’s great for dogs with allergies or skin conditions.
