Default MHG Mortise Chisels

Any thoughts on the MHG mortise chisel sets offered by Hartville Tool

http://www.hartvilletool.com/product/11707

versus the Hirsch Mortise Chisels from Leevalley

I'm also looking at the bench chisel sets.
thanks

MHGs are made to the true imperial size, versus metric for the
Hirsch. Worth noting.

Also, the MHGs come in smaller sizes--whether that's an issue depends
on what you're doing, but another thing worth noting.
