## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is this made?**
A: Wanna say they are made in england and one spot here in the us. To get a better answer get on youtbe and look up wranglerstar timber framing chesils. He does a complete break down about them.

**Q: What is the length from working edge to the hammer end and is there a beveled side version available too?**
A: I believe the 286 is the beveled version??? somewhere around 15"

**Q: How thick is the 1 1/2" chisel? 3/8"?**
A: the thickness tapers down from 3/8 at the base of the handle down to1/4 near the end. Excellent value!

**Q: can i get it engraved purchasing it through Amazon**
A: That was an option that I did not see when ordering this framing chisel but the chisel looks very rugged.  I am sure that you could order a branding iron with your initials on it thru Amazon.  I plan to be taking a timber framing course this coming Spring and can hardly wait to be using it.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ready to go out of the box.
*by K***R on October 17, 2024*

Good quality steel with a ready to go cutting edge right out of the package. It sharpens up well and quite easily and holds its edge too. Very satisfied with this and a 2" chisel I recently purchased. I will say though, I use this 1 1/2" more often, it's much easier to maneuver. I think If I had to do it all over again, I would go with the 1 1/2" chisel and a 2" Slick. That's a good combination when timber framing!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comes with a 30deg bevel
*by R***E on November 5, 2023*

Very nice and sturdy chisel. I'm new to timber framing, but thought this would come with a 25 degree bevel.I always sharpen my chisels with a 25 initial bevel and go with a 30 deg for the edge.This has a 30 deg bevel, so I went with about a 33 for the edge.All I have are water stones, so I wasn't going to spend hours taking this to 25.The backside has a nice concave surface to guarantee a nice flat cutting edge.I would definitely recommend Robert Sorby chisels

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HIgh quality tool!
*by M***R on April 21, 2025*

Beautiful tool, well made, not sure how I could repair timbers without it!
