NAREX produce different levels of quality for their hand tools but we stock only their most premium range. These "Wood Line Plus" Bench Chisels are forged from high alloy Cr-Mn steel and heat treated up to 59 HRc. They are fully ground and sharpened to a fine edge at their factory in the Czech Republic. Their round cross section make them a pleasure to hold and work with. Handles on these Wood Line Plus Bench Chisels are premium hornbeam wood, waxed and include a brass ferule. The value here is unbeatable, we use them in our shop and are never disappointed.

Since their introduction to the U.S. market, Narex edge tools developed a reputation for excellent quality at affordable prices. Unfortunately, imperial sizes are more difficult to find. Infinity Tools now offers Narex Wood Line Plus bench chisels in true imperial sizes.

We stock eight Imperial sizes:

  • 1/8"
  • 1/4"
  • 3/8"
  • 1/2"
  • 5/8"
  • 3/4"
  • 7/8"
  • 1"

Purchase these chisels as a money-saving set of all eight (above), including a leather tool roll, so you always have the size you need and a safe place to store them!

A chisel should do two things: cut wood cleanly and hold an edge for as long as possible. The Narex Premium line of bench chisels does both at a cost that is incredibly down to earth. Forged from Rc59 manganese steel in the Czech Republic, these hornbeam handled western bench chisels move effortlessly through end grain and pairing work with little honing necessary out of the box, and hold an edge throughout the workday. Dovetails turn out sharp and true thanks to a long 10 3/8" overall length with a 4" blade resulting in an exceedingly stable cutting instrument. Brass plated ferrule construction give them a traditional look and stay locked solid.

Named a Fine Woodworking Magazine 'Best Value' product in a head-to-head test of 23 brand name chisels, the Narex name stands strong against the competition. "...this is the obvious choice for best value among Western-style chisels." Issue # 200

Zoe P. ★★★★★

The edges came razor sharp out of the box and held up through a full day of dovetailing without needing a touch-up. The imperial sizes are spot-on, which is a relief since I'm tired of metric conversions throwing off my layout marks.

Edward G. ★★★★★

You can feel the steel quality the moment you handle them, and the true imperial sizing means no fiddly metric conversions when I'm marking out joinery. These have quickly become my go-to for dovetails, holding an edge longer than any chisels I've owned at this price point.

Abigail ★★★★★

The edges came ground at a perfect 25 degrees, so I was flattening the backs and honing within minutes instead of fussing with a grinder. The true imperial sizes mean no fiddly metric conversions when I'm fitting a mortise. These feel like they'll outlast every other chisel I've owned.
