I used this chisel set to remove dry rot from a wooden post. After 5 minutes, the blade of the large chisel was already pitted and chipped. I don’t know what the blade is made of, but it is evidently softer than dry rot. Then I used the small one, and it too was chipped and pitted after only 2 minutes.
The handles are made of plastic with no metal cap ends. These chisels are no better than what you get at a dollar store. I have been very disappointed with Stanley products lately. I bought Stanley leather work gloves that was literally unraveling at the seams as soon as I opened the package. I had to sew it back by hand. Then the inner lining started to fall apart after one use. No more Stanley for me!
I bought my 1st set 20 years ago. I now have 3. The handles feel great. The tips are easy to maintain.
Nice set for the home handyman. While not professional grade it does the job especially for cleaning up dead bold recesses in door frames.
