Product care instructions:
- Cleaning after use: carefully wipe away wood chips and dust to preserve the cutting edge.
- Dry thoroughly: avoid prolonged humidity to limit oxidation of the steel.
- Sharpening: although factory sharpened, these chisels can be sharpened; use water stones or abrasives suitable for oblique profiles to maintain optimal sharpness without altering the original geometry.
- Maintaining the handle: if the chisel has a wooden handle, apply wood oil or wax from time to time to preserve comfort and durability.
- Dry storage: keep in a dry place or in a case/protective bag to avoid moisture and protect the sharp edges.

Each width variant is intended for a different use:

- 8 mm: suitable for moderate material removal or more expressive angled cuts.
All chisels in this series are factory sharpened, which guarantees optimal cutting performance right out of the box.
