Sorby Bevel-Edge Framing Chisels

These are standard North American timber-framing chisels.

They taper from 7/16" thick at the shoulder to about 3/16" at the bevelled cutting edge. The sides are bevelled at a 60° angle to the face but, most important, they have an even width of land, making the chisel suitable for dovetail work. The blade lengths are about 8 3/4".
