Pros & Cons

The blades are only set by glue meaning they will eventually become lose with repeated use

Price


For the money these chisels are an amazing buy

If you want it honed and super sharp pay the extra for the set that is listed as deluxe you are paying the extra for the time


If you are looking for quality at a fair price these are the ones

Packaging/appearance


Quality is amazing tools are sharp packaging is lovely and the brand is solid


I just opened my package and am pleased


There was a card in the box from schaaf tools that said to send them an email and tell them what you thought


I was just disappointed that the box was all beat up

Competitiveness


My 34amateur34 sharpening was far superior to their 34professional34 version


I’ve owned a lot of wood chisels and these are by far superior


This set from schaaf includes 12 gouges and a tool roll for less than the cost of 3 34name brand34 gouges


Another company charges 5065 dollars per chisel for similar quality albeit they are ready to use out of the box
