I am looking to upgrade to a good set of chisels. I want SAE sizes, a good all around set. I guess bench chisels. What is the best bang for the buck out there?
Are there any makers that pre-lap the backside? That would be worth a premium to me, as I hate lapping the back of a blade.
I look forward to the opinions!
FYI - I also hope to buy mortise chisels sometime in the future.
