LEE VALLEY JAPANESE CHISELS have laminated blades that combine a hard high-carbon blue steel face with a shock-absorbing iron backing. Blue steel has a high tungsten and chromium content to give a durable edge, especially in hard or abrasive woods, according to Lee Valley. The chisels are a traditional pattern, with a triangular section that makes them ideal for removing waste between dovetails and allows them to work adjacent to angled surfaces. The chisels range from $85 for the 3 mm (1/8") chisel to $129 for the 24 mm (15/16") chisel. A boxed set of six chisels sells for $129. Contact: Lee Valley Tools Ltd., P.O.
