Set de formones Kirschen 1131002 acero al carbono mango beige Alemania

The Kirschen 1131002 chisel set comprises high-quality firmer chisels made in Germany with carbon tool steel blades and hornbeam handles. The set covers a range of blade widths suitable for shaping bevels, edges and surfaces, creating mortise and tenon joints, and removing wood material or unevenness. Blades are polished without score marks, hardened to approximately 61 HRC on two-thirds of the blade, and supplied with exclusive leather edge protection. The set is delivered with a genuine suede leather roll bag for safe storage and transport.

Advantages

Blades are made of high carbon tool steel with a factory grinding angle of 25° for work in soft to medium-hard wood. Handles are hornbeam with an impact-reinforced ring and ferrule for durability under striking. Polished blades have short, light bevels to facilitate controlled cutting, and leather edge protectors prevent damage during storage. The suede roll bag is made from 100% European leather, protects against dust and moisture, and offers multiple closure levels for secure transport.

How to use

Select the chisel width appropriate for the task and secure the workpiece. Use controlled strikes with a mallet on the hornbeam handle’s reinforced end when removing material or forming joints; for paring, hold the chisel and push by hand for finer control. Keep the blade’s bevel angle aligned with the intended cut and work from coarse removal to finer passes to avoid removing too much material at once. After use, fit the leather edge protection and store the chisels in the suede roll bag to prevent damage and corrosion.

Recommendations

Maintain sharpness by honing the blade regularly and store chisels dry in the suede leather pouch. Use the 25° ground angle mainly for soft to medium-hard woods; for harder timbers, consider regrinding to a suitable angle. Avoid striking the handle with metal tools other than recommended mallets to prevent damage to the impact ring.
