How to use

Hold the chisel with a firm but controlled grip on the rubberised handle and position the blade bevel toward the waste material for paring cuts. Use the full working length of the blade for long, even strokes when removing thin shavings; for detail or finishing cuts, use shorter controlled passes. Keep the workpiece secured in a vise or with clamps and always cut away from your body. Regularly hone the cutting edge to maintain performance.

Recommendations

Keep the blade clean and dry after use and store with the edge protected. Hone or sharpen the blade on appropriate stones before use for best results. Wear eye protection when paring hardened or resinous woods and ensure the workpiece is well supported to avoid slip-related injury.
