Tool Type: Paring Chisel
This Henry Taylor Paring Chisel review covers the Paring Chisel
produced by Henry Taylor Tools of Sheffield, England.
The Henry Taylor Bevel Edge Paring Chisel is a long-standing traditional
woodwork chisel with a long length slender blade with bevelled sides
making this tool ideal for paring work as well as allowing access to
difficult corners.
The Henry Taylor Bevel Edge Paring Chisel is available in sizes ranging
from 1/4" (6mm) - 1 1/4" (32mm).
The length of these blades are approximately 210mm - 250mm.
The blade is bevelled on three faces with the blade tapering towards the cutting
edge.
The blades are sold sharp, ready to use out of the packet, some very minor sharpening
may be needed.
These chisels are made from the long standing Henry Taylor Tools who have been making
hand tools since 1834.
The chisels are made using traditional techniques coupled with modern heat treatment
and finishing techniques with the blade being carefully forged, correctly hardened
and tempered to give a blade that holds a good edge.
The chisel is fitted with a darkly finished hardwood handle with a contrasting bright
brass ferrule. The handle is given the red Henry Taylor 'Diamic' brand sticker which
sits richly against the dark handle.
These paring chisels are made by hand through a series of processes and not in a
factory conveyor belt production machine / drop stamping mould. They may vary very
slightly from chisel to chisel due to the traditional way in which they are made.
Knowing the history and knowing by buying this tool you are keeping this history
and traditional craftsmanship going really adds an extra aura to the tool each time
you use it.
Having been to the Henry Taylor factory, I can safely say the tools are made using
old techniques, traditional tools and old machinery with the glowing molten metal
being bashed by a worker wearing thick round goggles, Henry Taylor are keeping the
golden age of Sheffield tool making alive.
Usually supplied in a plastic sleeve.

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information.
I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it.
Your website told me everything I needed to know.
But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading
page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.
I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
