Overview
Irwin's 1768781 chisel pairs an alloy steel blade with a handle offered in acetate or ProTouch grip, weighing 16 ounces and sold as a single chisel rather than part of a boxed set.
The listing marks this One Size, confirming it ships as a single chisel, the common way replacement chisels are sold to buyers filling out an existing roll. Blade edge width is not stated in the data, so confirm that detail matches your project before ordering.
- Alloy steel construction
- 16 ounce weight
- Acetate or ProTouch grip handle
- Single chisel, one size
Who it's for
Fits woodworkers who already use Irwin chisels and want to add a size or replace a worn one. Less suited to anyone shopping for a complete boxed set in a single purchase.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Alloy steel blade for edge retention
- Choice of acetate or ProTouch grip handle
- Light at 16 ounces for control
- Sold as one chisel, not a set
- Blade width not specified in listing data
Performance notes
Alloy steel blades hold an edge through routine paring and light chopping when kept sharp, and the two handle options trade a harder, mallet friendly acetate grip against a softer ProTouch rubber grip for hand pushed cuts.
