Six bevel-edged chisels cover 6, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 26 mm in one carton box. Blades are made from high-speed steel and ground by hand across the full face. Each handle is moulded in solid hard plastic with an oval section and anti-slip rings. The set meets DIN 5139 and is made in Germany.
A wood chisel set DIN 5139 with six bevel-edged blades covers the sizes 6, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 26 mm. The Kirschen 1118 SB is supplied in a carton box and is made in Germany. Blades are produced from high-speed steel and ground by hand over the full face. The bevelled sides let the blade reach into dovetail joints without fouling the shoulders.
Every handle is moulded in one piece from hard plastic and shaped to the hand. The oval cross section keeps the cutting edge aligned during paring cuts. Moulded rings on the grip reduce slipping when the hand is damp. The six-size range suits both fine joinery and coarser stock removal. Cabinetmakers, carpenters, model makers and maintenance workshops can use one box for most mortise and rebate work.
The cutting parts are forged from high-speed steel, then ground by hand across the whole blade face. Hand grinding gives a flat back and a clean, even bevel that is easy to re-hone on a stone. The side bevels run along the full length of the blade. This profile lets the chisel enter dovetail sockets and narrow corners where a square-sided blade would bind.
The width range spans fine joinery and general carpentry. The 6 and 10 mm blades clean small mortises and inlay recesses. The 12 and 16 mm sizes handle hinge gains and tenon shoulders. The 20 and 26 mm blades pare wide surfaces and level glue lines. Keeping all six in one box avoids switching between separate tools during a job.
Each blade sits in a single-piece hard plastic handle moulded directly to the tang. The shape follows the hand, so the tool stays steady during push cuts. The oval section stops the chisel from rolling on the bench and helps the user feel the edge orientation. Moulded rings around the grip give a defined hold when hands are dusty or damp.
The handle material tolerates workshop conditions such as glue, sawdust and moisture better than untreated wood. Because the grip is moulded as one piece, there is no ferrule joint to loosen over time. The set arrives in a carton box measuring 350 x 210 x 40 mm, with a total weight of 1150 g, so it can be stored flat in a tool chest drawer.
Typical tasks include cutting and cleaning mortises, trimming tenon shoulders and paring dovetail sockets. Joiners use the narrow blades for hinge and lock recesses in doors and window frames. Cabinetmakers rely on the wider sizes to level glue squeeze-out and flush proud joints. Model makers and pattern shops use the set for detail work in solid timber. Maintenance teams keep it for on-site fitting of wooden fixtures and furniture repair.
