Overview
The Record 060-1/2 is a chisel weighing 0.72 pounds with a cast iron material reference, part of the Record tool line. It fits woodworkers wanting a heavier bodied chisel to add to a bench set.
Cast iron is an unusual material to see paired with a chisel, more commonly found in a plane body or tool frame, so that spec should be read as it appears rather than assumed to describe the cutting edge itself. Record is a long running name in hand tools, though this listing gives no detail on blade steel, width, or handle type.

Who it's for
Suits woodworkers already using Record branded tools who want to add this chisel to a bench set. Less useful to anyone needing a confirmed blade width or steel type before buying, since neither is listed.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Some heft at 0.72 pounds for bench control
- Blade steel type not specified
- Cast iron reference not tied to a specific part
Performance notes
At 0.72 pounds this chisel carries some heft for its size, which can aid control on harder wood, though how that weight splits between handle and blade is not detailed. The cast iron note in the listing is not tied to a specific part of the tool, so its effect on edge performance is unclear.
