Narex | Richter Chisel With Long Handle 1¼" (32mm)

Narex Richter Chisel With Long Handle 1¼" (32mm)

Cryogenic Treatment
Immediately after initial hardening, cryogenic treatment cools the steel to very low temperatures using liquid nitrogen down to -190°C. This completes the austenite transformation, which increases both the hardness and toughness of the steel.

Named after Narex founder, Mr. Václav Richter, these chisels represent our highest quality manufacturing processes combined with unique materials, heat treatment and machining to produce a carpenter's tool of the highest quality. Each chisel is marked with the trademark RICHTER EXTRA.
