Description

We are proud to present to you Narex' newest line of RICHTER bench chisels.

Named after Narex founder Mr. Vaclav Richter, these chisels represent the highest quality of their manufacturing processes combining unique materials, superior heat treatment and machining in order to produce the finest tool for woodworkers. Every chisel is marked by their trademark RICHTER EXTRA.

Handles
RICHTER chisel handles are made of domestically and responsibly harvested European Ash wood known for its strength, toughness and attractive grain. The ergonomic handles are sanded and subsequently hand-polished for maximum comfort and control. Solid stainless- steel ferrules protect the handles from splitting, and leather washers absorb the shock of mallet blows.

Blades
RICHTER chisel blades are made from the highest quality Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) steel using traditional drop-forging methods. Blades are then hardened, cryogenically treated and tempered to achieve a minimal hardness of 62 HRc. Subsequent fine-grinding and polishing ensure a mirror-like surface with ultra-thin sides allowing reach into tight spaces, making them the perfect tool for dovetailing. The backs are ground flat to our smallest production tolerances, requiring minimal flattening during initial sharpening. The front bevel is ground at 24°, while a secondary micro-bevel is advisable depending on how the chisel is to be used and personal preference.

Maintenance
Our RICHTER chisel box is perfect for safe storage. As with any kind of tool steel, the blades can rust when unprotected. Always protect the blades from rust with oil, wax or other corrosion inhibitors.

Lifetime guarantee
Narex products come with a lifetime guarantee. In the case of a manufacturer defect in material, design or construction, a free replacement or repair will be provided. Note that this guarantee is not valid if products are deemed to be damaged due to carelessness, neglect or inappropriate use.

Cryogenic treatment: Right after initial hardening, cryogenic treatment cools the steel down to very low temperatures by using liquid nitrogen to as low as -190 °C. This completes transformation of austenite, which increases both the hardness and toughness of the steel.

This set includes: 1/4" (6mm), 3/8" (10mm), 1/2" (13mm), 3/4" (19mm) and 1" (25mm) chisels, supplied in a wooden case.
