I have decided to try these out as my daily users to see if I like them better than my Lie Nielsens. So far, I like sharpening them better (A2 steel is really hard), and they feel softer in my hands. Much more comfortable. All of them.Brian Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252174035715635674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5591297260116621731.post-5342163009421330092015-04-15T22:18:33.606+02:002015-04-15T22:18:33.606+02:00It is good to see all those chisels having been cl...It is good to see all those chisels having been cleaned and polished. <br />I have two Sorsakoski chisels, I think they are 3/8" and 1/2". They are really nice chisels to use.<br /><br />Cheers<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5591297260116621731.post-60559221047913139762015-04-14T16:18:36.966+02:002015-04-14T16:18:36.966+02:00Thanks, Pekka!

Berg chisels I have been using for a while, and they are a joy. The steel sharpens so easily.<br /><br />Good luck with the dinner music for your chisels.Brian Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252174035715635674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5591297260116621731.post-31218671714284204972015-04-13T22:06:41.137+02:002015-04-13T22:06:41.137+02:00Oooh nice.
