This 32mm (1 1/4in) Marples M373 Splitproof Bevel Edge Wood Chisel offers an excellent balance between precision and stock removal capacity. The 32mm width is particularly suited to working with standard door lock mortises, cabinet work, and general joinery tasks where a broader blade is advantageous. Manufactured from best-in-category steel, this chisel delivers exceptional sharpness and superior edge retention for demanding professional applications. The blade, bolster and tang are forged from one piece of steel, ensuring maximum strength and long-term reliability. Bevelled edges enable easier working in tight corners and restricted areas. The splitproof two-tone plastic handle withstands heavy-duty use and repeated striking without splitting or deteriorating, whilst the contoured design provides enhanced control and reduced hand fatigue during extended use.
