This premium quality 6mm Flat Socket Chisel from Yoshihiro of Japan, is an excellent wood carving tool made from Laminated Yasuki White Paper No.2 Steel Blade, with an iron Ferrule, and Red Oak Handle. The White Paper No.2 Steel is of exceptional hardness, ensuring a lasting cutting edge, while being extremely easy to sharpen. The iron ferrule provides a soft bed that cushions the impact of mallet blows protecting the blade's hard steel. The iron socket is firmly attached to a sturdy red oak handle, that has a hoop at the end, giving it extra strength to withstand many years of mallet blows.

One of the smallest size blades found on a socket chisel, this 6mm blade is excellent for roughing out designs, and making square cuts for slots and other shaped holes. This blade is fine enough that it can contribute to finer carvings often reserved for smaller, more delicate tools.

To use, simply grasp the handle below the hoop, position the blade over the wood you wish to carve, angle correctly, then strike the back of the handle with a mallet or similar implement with the force required to cut the wood to the desired depth. Repeat as necessary.
