This 16mm (5/8in) Marples M373 Splitproof Bevel Edge Wood Chisel is a medium-narrow size that offers excellent control for detailed joinery whilst providing sufficient width for efficient working. The 16mm width is particularly suited to fine carpentry, cabinet work, and cleaning out moderately-sized recesses. Manufactured from best-in-category steel, this chisel provides superior sharpness and edge retention for precision work and clean cuts. The blade, bolster and tang are forged from one piece of steel for maximum strength and durability. Bevelled edges enable easier working in tight corners and restricted areas where access is limited. The splitproof two-tone plastic handle is designed to withstand heavy striking and continuous use without splitting or deteriorating, whilst the contoured design ensures comfortable control and reduced hand fatigue during extended detailed work.
