I bought four sets of chisels from a used place. The kind with a light green
see-thru handle and a black trim - no brand. It performed fine for a few
weeks until a pearl sized chip came off in sections from the tip of the green
handle which I did not notice earlier. I was chiseling against the grain of the
wood, not along the grain as instructed from a book. But, I've chiseled against
the grain with a 10-year old Stanley (with a non-see-thru plastic handle) without
problems. What's the best way to repair these tool?


Hi,
This message was already posted, unless you don't mind replying again. There
was an internal ISP error which caused a mirrored post that is beyond my
control. The actual post is here. http://snipurl.com/daib
