    Default Robert Sorby 1/2" cast steel mortise chisel

    This hasn't had the best life - someone cut off the handle, and the pits on the socket suggest it has used for serious joinery at some point.

    Saved from ending up as a paint tin opener but I'm not ever going to get around to restoring it.

    Really, it just needs a good home and a bit of care and it will repay you.

    All of the usual English toolmaking excellence you'd expect - slightly relieved sides and the socket grind will allow the bottom to be properly flattened.

    Asking $10 plus postage.
