XMS Irwin XMS18S373S8 Marples Limited Edition Splitproof Chisel Set 8 Piece, Wood

I had a set of chisel Marple 40 years ago if not longer over the years my life bought them never got them back so tight treat myself. I was not disappointed by the quality just as good now as they were all those years ago my legs will not be borrowing these.

Brilliant piece of kit, good quality product and value for money

Exactly as described very sharp great set of wood chisels

Great quality marple set bought for my partner who loved them . Comes in a wooden case for storage

These chisels appear very good quality for the cost. The chisels themselves come sharp enough to use and the metal is thicker than I was expecting.I own a cheap Aldi set which I use for less desirable jobs e.g. removing window surrounds and other jobs that run the risk of gouging the chisel into a screw or brick and then a set of Stanley sweethearts for ‘finer’ work.At the £74 the Irwin’s fit a middle ground between my other two sets, but on early impressions, may make the Stanley set redundant. The metal on the Stanley Sweethearts looks to be better quality, but is significant thinner and, unless doing extremely precise woodwork, the Irwin’s will be used for 90%+ of jobs.

Nice box , not use much yet , but look good for the money .

This is great set of chisels but be warned they come with a factory grind on the tip so require final sharpening before use.

These were bought as a present for my son who is a part time carpenter and cabinet maker. He was absolutely thrilled with them and said they were a good step up from his previous set of chisels and they are a pleasure to handle and use and the quality of the construction is solid.Not knowing anything about chisels I took a while to read many different product reviews. I decided on these as a good all round set at a reasonable price, with the most positive reviews from people who had used them for years. Not the cheapest option but for tools that will be used for years to come I think they are good value so I am glad I spent a little bit more. My son's enthusiasm bears this out and I hope they will last him for many years too.
