Description
To celebrate its 100th anniversary, Narex has developed the RICHTER chisel line, which are certainly one of the best tools ever produced by a renowned Czech manufacturer. Combining the highest quality materials with professional quality of workmanship, these are well-made chisal. The blades are made of chrome-vanadium steel, tempered to Rc62 and subjected to cryogenic treatment to harden steel without causing its brittleness. Later finishing and polishing sanding ensure a high-quality glossy surface finish. Slanted grinding at an angle of 24 is more suitable for precision and medium hard and soft wood processing. If a larger angle is needed, as is usually the case with hardwood processing or vigorously hitting the chisel with a hammer, it is easy to apply the second phase to the first. In order to ensure the distance from the side walls necessary to work in narrow cavities, the thickness of the blade narrows from the front to the back. Made to strict specifications, they are flat sanded with an accuracy of 0.1 mm along the first 2/3 of the blades measuring from the top and sharpened to the sharp edge, which requires only light honing before use. The ridge of the chisel is sanded very evenly and requires very little effort to get a perfectly flat chisel back. The handle is made of European ash, which is an excellent choice for this purpose due to its hardness, strength and beautiful hair removal. The handle has an ergonomic shape and is carefully sanded. The handle has a convenient, profiled shape and convex end, which is resistant to chipping as a result of hammering. It is equipped with leather cushioning pad and thick ring made of solid stainless steel.
These superb bevel edged chisels are named after the founder of Narex Bystrice, Mr Vaclav Richter. Launched to celebrate the centenery of the company,
Made from a new type of steel alloyed with chromium for hardenability and vanadium for grain reduction and enhanced toughness, the steel is heat treated using a cryogenic process to maximise the formation of the desirable martensite crystalline microstructure in the finished steel.
The chisels are fitted with traditional pattern handles from Mr Richter’s time, made from ash for lightness and strength, extremely smoothly finished and secured with a split-proof ground steel ferrule bearing the Richter logo and smartly trimmed with a thin leather bolster. The chisels are supplied coated with a light corrosion inhibiting oil with VCI protection for each individual chisel to ensure that they reach you in perfect condition.
Available in seven sizes: 1/8″, 1/4″, 3/8″, 1/2″, 3/4″, 1″ and 1-1/2″
