“Got these on sale and love them. I have been using "big box" chisels and these are a huge step up. As described, they needed to be sharpened and flattened. Once I completed this process they sharpened to excellent edge. Using them for dovetails is so much nicer than my previous chisels. I would highly recommend these chisels. Get them while they are on sale!”

“I have no issues with these. Just ordered a second set. For the sale price they can't be beat. Put a secondary bevel on them out of the box in two minutes. Work great, feel great.”

“Sharpening and some flattening was required but they are my go-to chisels for cutting dovetails. Handle are comfortable for paring and hold up with mallet work. They hold an edge but I routinely hone on a 5,000 grit diamond stone after about 10 minutes of use.”

“After having Pfeil butt chisels put on backorder for months, I 'settled' for these. Boy, was that a good move! Yes, these chisels need to be lapped and sharpened, but once that is done, they are a great chisel. Really hold and edge. Fit my hands very well. Glad I made the purchase.”

“The chisels look great and arrived on time. But Iâ€™m just now getting around to sharpening them and Iâ€™ve started with the backs, and they are only slightly better then a mill file flatness out of the box. Additionally, at least the 3/4 is not square to the sides.”

“I bought these a year or so ago because the other brand was not in stock and back ordered several times. I have been VERY pleased with these. They required flattening an sharpening but once done, they have been terrific. Really glad I bought them. As a side note... I have purchased other Woodriver items and always well satisfied with them.”

“The butt chisels flattened and honed razor sharp and are great for completing dovetails. I had planned on getting another brand but because that brand was continually back ordered, I settled for these. However, the Woodriver set has proven to be excellent for my purposes and are considerably less expensive than the other brand.”

“If not top shelf then a very good second shelf. With my set, the back of the tools arrived quite flat and the bevels ready for honing. I think I spent 45 minutes getting the entire set of four bench ready. They so far are keeping an edge but time will see how they anneal. I only occasionally use a butt chisel so these seem to be perfect.”
