Narex chisels are made from high-quality chrome-manganese steel, which combines durability and edge retention with ease of sharpening.
Bench chisels have a thicker blade and are designed for heavier duty work, while bevel edge chisels have a thinner blade and are better suited for fine detail work and precision cutting.
Narex chisels should be sharpened regularly using a sharpening stone or honing guide. It's important to maintain a consistent angle and to avoid overheating the blade during sharpening.
Narex offers a limited lifetime warranty on all of its products, meaning that it will repair or replace any defective products free of charge during the life of the tool.
