The handles are comprised of the typical abuse hungry polymer plastic resin.I bought this set and threw one to each of the guys on my framing crew.We abuse these things. They are used to cut nails, pry walls, as screwdrivers and sometimes actually used as chisels should be.Fortunately the steel is easilly sharpened. 1 minute on the belt sander to remove the deep nicks and then about 5 minutes on the sharpening stones and we are sharp for another 2 weeks.If you want fine chisels for craftsmanship go buy a set of Marples or 2 Cherries...if you want a set to abuse, drop, clean your nails, pull slivers, play mumbley peg, pry walls, open paint cans, scredriver, pry up backing...etc etc etc.Then get these....and share !Click Here to see more reviews about: Stanley 16-268 FatMax Wood Chisel Set, 3-Piece
Product Description:
The Stanley FatMax 3-Piece Wood Chisel Set is the ultimate chisel set! It includes three chisels: 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-inch FatMax chisels. They have 45-percent longer blades than other wood chisels and are ideal for use in fine woodworking and carpentry. The blades are 100-percent through-hardened for better blade life and re-sharpening. They feature bi-material ergonomic handle for better feel and better grip. The handles are also longer for better safety and control. This three-piece chisel set comes with a storage case that allows for carry along or free-standing bench-top use. Some of the other features of the FatMax chisels are: Ball bearing grade steel for maximum edge retention and long life; blade tip guards for protection and safety, large steel striking cap provides better handle durability and greater ease in striking; and recessed thumb grip for comfort and control.
