We have had nothing but success with Narex and now that we’ve used them for a year we do feel we can endorse them as reliable, edge-retaining chisels that sharpen well and give excellent results. I am in the middle of testing out the Robert Sorby range right now and the results will be out in the new year. I have used their chisels for about 18 years, the ones I personally have are the London-pattern hexagonal handle made from boxwood and these have been just excellent chisels. i am testing out three doifferent styles from their range and will be posting the results on the paulsellers.com blog.
Also, I just did a post on my blog on the blue handled Faithfull line of plastic handled chisels. These sell only in the UK and look identical to the old (not the new Irwin Marples) Marples bluechip. As yet I have found no difference between the two makes.
