you might try giving them a few more honings- if the factory grind
burned the steel you will need to hone past it.

at best you'll end up with a decent utility set.


No... these are new_old_stock Buck Bros. bench chisels. If you go to
http://www.craftsmanstudio.com/ you'll read the story there. Quite a
nice find really. These blades were made in the 60's and were found
in factory storage at The Riverlin Works. I use the "Scary Sharp"
method.


From the web site: "Today, 140 years later, quality chisels are still
produced at the Riverlin Works."

Danger! Danger Will Robinson!

I don't think I'd trust these people.
