WTB - Fishtail chisels

[John Keeton]

Hi John,

Do you mind sharing where you purchased your MHG chisels from? Fishtail chisels have been on my list and MHG might be just the ticket.

DIETER SCHMID WERKZEUGE GMBH in Germany. They do business as fine-tools.com. Here is a link to the fishtails - https://www.fine-tools.com/fishtail-paring-chisel.html. There is a 50 Euro minimum to ship to the US. The exchange rate is not good and shipping is high, but the three I bought totaled $165 shipped. One LN would be about $142 or so.

I too have been looking into purchasing some fishtail chisels and didn't know about MHG until mentioned here. Just ordered a set of three. I was seriously thinking of going with the IBC offerings from Cosman but hesitated at the price. Similar to what John mentioned above, one of the IBC chisels cost about the same as a 3 piece set of MHG chisels including shipping to the US. I think it's worth giving MHG a try.

Thanks, John! This is a great option, seems to be designed well and at a great price.

Received my MHG order today from Germany. Probably won't be able to give them a close look until later this month after returning from a short trip.
