High quality at a low price
The media could not be loaded. Usually when you go cheap you get what you pay for but these chisels are actually great. Plenty of sizes and they came pretty sharp. Not quite sharp enough though. I paired these with cheap diamond plate sharpen stones and leather strop and now they are razor sharp! Keep in mind I'm in no way a professional but in my video you can see it effortlessly cuts through wood almost like butter (and that's only with one hand). The angles are true and I like the big handles. The only thing I can say negative about these is the sharpen block and honing guide are low quality, the guide doesn't even fit the chisels properly. Well worth it to give them a try.

Fantastic quality for the price, excellent value.
Well made, sturdy, sharp, already got a lot of use out of them and looks like they'll last a long time.

Will teach you patience in sharpening
I'm admittedly an amateur woodworker. I bought my first set of chisels, figuring something cheap would get me started until I decide which tools require better quality to get good results.As a beginner, I think I will get totally adequate results from this set. I've already chopped and pared some pretty good through mortises in pine, right out of the box. When I felt the ones I was using were getting too dull, I set about actually flattening and sharpening them.And flattening. And flattening. My wife wonders what I've been doing at the kitchen counter all weekend. My back wonders, too.I started on the larger ones, and every single one so far (I've tested four of them) is anything but flat. Tool marks I can understand and handle (and there are plenty). But bellied backs and wavy warps are very common. I think they've all had a thin spot in the top left corner that I still haven't been about to reach by grinding down the rest of the surface. I mean, one of them is noticeably thinner along one side profile vs. the other. I've probably worked on the big one for an hour today alone, with the 120g oil stone included, as well as a coarse diamond stone. If I can't make the back flat along the edge, then I don't have much hope in getting a truly sharp bevel. It's possibly this is just user error, of course. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, or maybe my expectations are too high.Honestly, if I had seen how not-flat they are (especially all in the same corner, at the edge), I would have just returned them. But now I'm just hoping that I get some good sharpening practice out of them, before putting them back into use. And at that point, I do expect they will serve me well, once I've got them properly set up. So, 4 stars for now. We'll see if my patience holds out to really put them to work and report back.Edit: Well, it's three years later, and I still haven't bought new chisels. I have, however, bought better sharpening tools, to make the process faster and more accurate. But yeah, these chisels are fine. They won't hold an edge through hours of hardwood gouging, of course. But they'll get the job done. They're also great to use in situations where I wouldn't put a nice Swiss steel at risk, like when I needed to shave off some material from my wood floors, right up against the concrete slab. My Amazon chisels nicked that concrete plenty, and then I just touched them up after. I should probably get some better quality chisels eventually, but these have held up perfectly well so far.

Amazing..... chisel set...
I retired as a GC after nearly 30 years, I parted with a lot of good and a lot of expensive tools over the years. I needed to replace some of my tools that I donated or sold or gave to my guys as thanks.One thing I knew I was going to replace matching sets of tools for my new workshop, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something that I didn't intend to use incredibly often.This is one of the best sets of chisels I've ever bought. They came incredibly honed, the way I was showed to check how fine, was shave some hair off your wrist.... out of the box they did.I've bought and misplaced, and used and forgotten and traded off for one reason or another. These are as good as an incredibly expensive set from a 'wood working company'. I'm not speaking ill of those companies, I'm just saying if you need a good set of chisels and your not selling your work based on your chisels...GET THESE!!!!!I'll steer anyone to them over another set. I'll keep my mixed set in the back up drawer, for someone else to use or borrow. The Amazon ones are mine only!!!!!! Get them and tell anyone else, get their own!!!! BUY THEM!!!👍👍😁😁PS I have to fill in around the dead bolt and lock strike plates, and paint. But I was so pleased that I finally used them I wanted to post this ASAP. They cut wood like butter, I barely used a hammer to tap the chisel along, or just the butt of my hand. Sharp as can be, from the factory!!!

Fantastic value
I paid around $24 for this set. The reviews are pretty accurate. The case is the weakest part but it will suffice. You won't walk into one of the big box stores and find a better deal. I'm considering buying a backup set. For the non-professional these are more than sufficient. The case and sharpening stone are just bonuses. I really can't say anything bad about this set. Great value.

Get This Chisel Set Now!!
I needed a new chisel set for a live wood epoxy project when I came across this one!! I admit I was a bit skeptical, because you don't always get what you pay for! This was not one of those times!!The chisels were packaged well, and the quality seems to be very good. They come very sharp and sliced like butter. I'm usually not impressed easily, but this set checks all the box's for me. You have a bunch of different chisels, a sharpener, a case, and sold at a great price!! Get it, and you won't be disappointed!!

Worth the money
This chisel set came super sharp. Didn’t have to sharpen before the first use. I love that they came with the things needed to sharpen them. The color is nice. The handle is comfortable to hold. No complaints about these.
