Sharpen the chisels as needed, which depends on frequency and type of use. Regular honing after each use can help maintain sharpness.

What is the best way to store these chisels?

Store the chisels in a dry place, preferably in a tool roll or rack, to protect the blades and prevent rust.

Can I use these chisels on metal?

No, these chisels are designed for woodworking and should not be used on metal.

How do I clean rust off the blades?

Use a rust remover or fine-grit sandpaper, followed by cleaning and oiling the blade.

What type of mallet is best for these chisels?

A wooden or rubber mallet is recommended to avoid damaging the handles and blades.

Are the handles replaceable?

While the handles are durable, they may eventually wear out. Consider contacting the manufacturer for replacement options.

Troubleshooting

Chisel edge dulls quickly.

Sharpen the chisel regularly using a sharpening stone or honing system. Ensure the correct sharpening angle is maintained.

Handle feels loose.

Check the connection between the blade and the handle. If loose, consider tightening or replacing the handle.
