Lacing Chisels with a prong width of 3mm (1/8"). With a prong width of 3mm (3/32"), these chisels are used when lacing using whipstitch, double or triple loop or braided edges. It is a matter of aesthetics but the angled chisel works very well for simple whipstitch giving an attractive flow to the lacing. Made from chromoly 41xx steel giving an excellent strength to weight ratio, these chisels are stronger and harder than standard steel and the black coating prevents corrosion and provides wear resistance. For best results use a good quality cutting mat underneath and hit with a wood or poly mallet. To preserve the life of a chisel further push into a beeswax block prior to use. Show more
