True butt chisels are short, squat things with bulbous handles and, typically, square sides. They're good for fine joinery and cabinetwork (the chisels originally were used for making the housings for butt hinges) and for woodworkers who aren't comfortable with the heftier size of traditional bench chisels. Ashley Iles Edge Tools gets a lot of attention and high marks in chisel reviews for their traditional London Pattern bench chisels, and the company wanted to bring a comparable level of craft to their line of butt chisels. After doing a lot of testing with cabinetmakers, they made a few subtle changes that turned a typical butt chisel into what we think will become a very popular new style. We call them "American Pattern Bevel Edged Chisels" because with the new handle, they aren't really butt chisels anymore. They are similar to some of the more popular classic American chisels that used to be manufactured here. First of all, the chisels are short, which for smaller work is a real boon. The sides are beveled, like those of a classic bench chisel, to let you get into much smaller spaces than a traditional butt chisel. Finally, the handles are specifically designed to be easy to grasp. (There are actually two sizes of handles (chisels of greater width than 1" get a larger handle.) Of course as in all Ashley Iles tools, the butt chisels have great steel and flat backs. The feedback we've received on Ashley Iles chisels has been so positive that we want to expand the selection of their tools as much as we can. Overall length, 7 1/2" - 9 1/4" . Usable Blade length approximately 2 5/8". Bubinga handles. A full range of sizes is available individually or as sets at a further discount. The set of 4 includes the 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", and 1" wide chisels. The set of 6 also includes the 3/8" and either the 1/8" or 5/8" wide chisels. Made In England.
