How to use

Select the chisel size appropriate for the task and secure the workpiece. Hold the polypropylene handle with a firm grip and, when necessary, apply controlled strikes to the end of the handle using a wooden or plastic mallet designed for chisels; avoid using hardened steel hammers on the handle. For paring and trimming, use hand control without striking and move the blade along the wood grain when possible to achieve smoother cuts. After use, clean the blade, apply a light protective oil if required, and replace the blade guard before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use protective eyewear and gloves when chiselling. Keep chisels sharp for safer, more effective cutting and store them with their blade guards to prevent damage. Use appropriate mallets for striking and maintain the lacquered finish by wiping blades dry after use to reduce corrosion risk.
