PaskMakes is insane. He's got some just ridiculous amounts of ingenuity and patience. I'm waiting for him to build an entire Kumiko house!
He is great
My vise is based on his design, except I chose not to weld the frame to avoid distortion. I had the advantage of using a milling machine so the parts were accurate and everything lined up and went together nicely, with no tight spots. It's one of my favourite things, and works perfectly. There's something very satisfying about being able to slide the moving jaw in and out, and then clamping with a quarter turn of the handle.
I loved watching his Scrapwood Challenge videos. He showed some real ingenuity.
Found him a couple years ago while I had covid and he is seriously a genius when it comes to making just about anything
Pask is grrrreat
What a coincidence !? I just finished making almost an exact replica about 2 weeks ago, same everything except all free hand planes and an old chisel. I'm a retired designer / builder and now I get to just chill without the hurry up and pressure and transition to finer projects using more hand tools and really getting into details. The new chisels were a gift to myself and made personal by doing the handles, No thank you to forging my own. That would be another shop and I don't have the room. Thanks for listening. Ciao
You were correct, I saw your video seven hours after you published it and all the chisel sizes were sold out. I'll look for a second hand set next week when people realise that making the handles is harder than you make it look!😂
I made my set a year ago using the regular Narex, not the Richter. I made a London-pattern handle in cherry for my set.... Nothing short of stunning!!
I’ve made a few London Pattern handles and love them, I’ve got plenty of cherry to make a set of handles from, I just need the chisels to come back in stock
The woodturner’s secret! Not only do turners make their own handles, many of us grind our own tools from bar stock. Jantz Knifemaking Supply and Doug Thompson sell unground bar stock. Excellent video. There are a lot of newbies and intermediate carps and turners who (I hope) will take heed of your useful information. Thanks!
My dad just bought me the 1/4", 1/2", 3/4" and 1" of the Narex Richter chisels. I just started in woodworking in December and trying to start my own company (not going so well so far). The chisels i used before were black handle steel ended Husky chisels from Home Depot that were like $10 each. What a difference the Narex were. Both sets were sharpened the same way, similar to the "scary sharp" system. But the Narex were just so so much better to work with. I'm glad i have those Narex now. I use the Husky's to get the bulk of the wood chipped away then i use the Narex for the finer work.
Those cheap chisel are important; I kept them visible on the jobsite, and my good ones hidden or locked up ( not joking). It's amazing how abusive people are to all tools. $200 kitchen knife? Someone will use it in a frying pan. Got a leatherman/ Gerber? Someone will grab it and use it as a crowbar.
If I told someone I paid $10 for a chisel blank, they'd grab it and tear out some base board, bashing right thru nails. They won't care how long it takes to repair, or how much time I spent making the handle.
I realize that I'm a grumpy old man now and that I can't handle employees / coworkers

Dear sir, I just wanted to say that I wish some of our politicians could explain half as well as you do, and with Sincerity as you do with a wood working. You are one of my go to channels when it comes to woodworking and woodworking tools. I like where you heart’s at. I’m 68 years young just starting out in this hobby and have to adjust things because of my health, so I gotta do things a little bit slower and sometimes sitting down but I’m enjoying learning. Thanks young man.
Thank you, Mr. Nubs you saved me $100.00 on the purchase of these chisels I had already planned to buy! What a great idea and I thank you again for passing it along to us, you're a true leader!
Thank you so much for this video ! Lots of youtubers claim to have money-saving tips but you legitimately taught me something valuable today, i love this channel
As long as you do this in your own time and don't factor time as a cost this is a great money-saving tip. If you put in lost work-time or have to count money/time it is not so good...
This feels like a bonus episode of "cool tools". I've been holding off on buying a set of chisels and this was the push I needed. Plus, it's a chance to use that awesome C-14 I got a few months ago.
I wouldn't think that much of the price would be in the handle. I would go for this. Would be a fun project.
Think about it in terms of operations and machine set-ups required. The chisels are probably forged en masse, then ground and polished on an assembly line (CNC) machine. Once you add a handle, let alone the assembly step, you're going to need some human input, and humans are expensive.
@@swolebro Breaking down lumber into blanks, machining blanks into handles, drilling the holes for the chisel, making a ferrule, adding a ferrule, finishing them and fitting them. There is a lost that has to go into it, I have no idea how much time it would take, But the step up in price is understandable
What they both said...
A lot of the savings are what the others have said, but there's one more big difference in people costs: small family companies don't usually have a dozen layers of middle management. A large international corporation has a lot of overhead in just being a company, but they usually add a bunch more to ensure every worker is replaceable.
These unhandled Narex chisels are great. I bought a set about a year ago and made handles for them. My handle design is very old time traditional, so I used a jig on the table saw to make hexagonal blanks and then put them on the lathe to finish them. You won't regret purchasing these chisels.
Nice one James, and they ship to New Zealand with surprisingly cheap postage. This is going to be an enjoyable project. I own two full sets - one of which I've had for at least 40 years - plus a shop build slick and a 2" chisel. My Menz Shed has a hopeless collection of never sharp beat up chisels, so I'll gift them my old set and keep the Narex chisels. Hmmm. I am really looking forward to making those handles! 😁
At first I thought this was a good deal but when looking further into it it appears these blades are from the narex 8105 chisels and in the uk you can get a set of six with handles already fitted for £62 Inc vat. But as pointed out it is always nice to have your tools tailored to suit and it's a nice project to do. Thanks for the video Stump and have a great weekend. Update, its just been pointed out the narex 8105 are different, the ones that stumpy was showing are more likely to be the more expensive narex 8116 that come in at £90 for a set of six. Sorry for any confusion.
Do you have a link to where you can get them from in the UK please?
Thats a crazy cheap price. I'd check they are the same spec though. Narex make a range of hardness and quality chisels.
@@jarrodmcguire2508 they are available from a company called Workshop Heaven. Tried posting a link but nit sure if the post has went through.
@@jarrodmcguire2508 Amazon sells Narex as well deals turn up all the time
Those are different blades than the Narex 8105s. THose blades at Workshop Heaven are the 'Bevel Edge' blades - you can see that the edge is clearly different in the 8105s than these. A set of 5 of these blades with handles is £159.90, equivalent to about $200 USD... $40 over Stumpy's link w/o handles.
Obv shipping prices might change that, but looks like handles will cost you $40 for those Ricther blades... still not terrible if you want quality but don't want to make your own handles.
Just finished my first custom handled chisel. Used a different pattern for the handle bud super excited. Bought the standard chisels ($9.99) and am very impressed. Took a great edge that will shave hair and like the handle fitting my large hand better. Thank you!
Speaking as a potter - there is great satisfaction in daily using bowls, plates, and mugs that I've made, either hand-built or on the wheel. Thanks for another great vid! Aloha
I'm excited. I've wanted to upgrade my construction chisels for a while but haven't been able to afford a nice set. Now I can do it sooner, and making my own handles is going to make them feel so good in my hand both physically and sentimentally.
Curses Red Baron - they've already sold out! Ah well! Best wood working channel IMHO...I always leave it inspired to do something I never thought I would do! Thanks James...awesome as always!
When I first saw this video the chisel sets were completely sold out (and I went to the site only an hour or two after you posted it) they finally had the set back in stock last week so I picked one up, it arrived today and as a woodturner I’m really looking forward to customizing some handles for this, maybe doing a little custom engraving to make the set really just mine.
I LOVE this tip. Making handles is one of the most fun woodcrafting activities you can do in my honest opinion. It's design, but then there is a very low requirement for precision since it just needs to fit your hand.
This is so helpful for me, because I'm always looking for cheaper tools.
Thank you!
I love how you really focus on small business. Ty for that.
I built this jig when I saw the Pask Makes vid and have been having fun making tool handles ever since. It is brilliant and makes the tool so much more personal when I customize it to my hand.
Your delivery is great, in my opinion. Clear, concise, even soothing. I am not a wood worker but subscribed as I do like to see tools used correctly!!!
Thank you!!! Got 4 of the 6. 1/4” & 1/2” out of stock
All the chisels kits are sold out now, probably meaning your advice was followed 😊 Personally brought chisels with broken handle in flea markets.
Less than 24 hrs in and they're sold out all across the board. That's how you know a channel is worth sponsoring if you are a tool manufacturer
I get a lot of antique tools for dirt cheap and most are missing handles and need some love. The usa steel is exceptional and making a custom handle feels great! Not to mention fixing up a tool for another 50+ years of service! Great video and tip on the jig!
PASK MAKES named by another of my favorite channels!?! I’m in heaven
Good advice. Over the winter I made handles for two slicks I bought without handles. All by hand, no lathe. And it was fun. Thanks again.
35 seconds in I order 1 of each for a complete set. Have been struggling on which set to purchase now it's done. Then I watched the rest of the great video. What a great service you provide.
Wow already sold out, all sizes. A testament to how good this deal is! I'll be checking back.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. There are a number of ways to look at this problem. Making your own handles allows you to customize size and shape. This is key for those with different-sized hands or those who like asymmetric flat areas. On the other hand (pun, hahaha), if it takes you 1 hour to to make a handle, then your time is valued at $27/hr.
Yup; love tools i make and use; made some handheld jigsaw blade handles, few different ones out of acrylic as its light and strong; use then for cutting stock out of small mortises on framing timber that id rather drill saw rasp and file than chisel; magic mate
I picked up a set of Narex blanks last year, had a great time making handles and sharpening them. Great project
My chisels just came in. DUDE 9.99$ to 12$ each? Such a deal. I got nearly all my chisels for the price of 1.5 chisels with a handle. These are fantastic!
I agree. My ugly handmade tools are definitely my pride and joy. And I customized them so that they fit me, not just your average person.
I ordered 1/8”, 1/4”, 1/2”, 3/4” and 1”. Basically all of them, as I was just using my old chisels and I was angry at them. Bad misbehaved chisels!
I have been looking for a nice 1/8" chisel for a while. Bought this one, put a handle on it, voila'. Happy. Thanks for the FYI.
Taylor Tool is sold out on the popular sizes at the moment (7 April 2023) just FYI. Sucks because I wanted to order a full set.
The downside of his videos sharing cool stuff, they often sell out fast.
I bought some. I've needed some proper chisels for a while and this should be a lot of fun. Thanks Stumpy!
"Old timey days" HAHA, Good to know, I'm definitely going to get a set, Thanks for the info!
Chisels already sold out!!! I put myself on the email list but that was fast. I need a set of chisels, like the idea of making my own handles and saving a lot of money. Thank you.
I always learn so much from you Stumpy! Thank you for sharing these tidbits🥃
If you melt plastic milk jugs . Roll the soft plastic. You can turn on a lathe a super handle. Just use a old toaster oven. Add color plastics to make really cool handles / knobs etc.
Man… Talk about light at the end of the tunnel. Quality tools and wood are pretty expensive these days if you get them from the first places you think of. Thanks for sharing this gold mine of value! This’ll probably be my first chisel… set. 🤑
Well I took your advise and got the Narex Richard Extra handless chisel from Tayler Toolworks. It came all polished and looked great. After honing the back with 220 grit on a piece of float glass from scary sharp it still has a hollow in the back.
Years ago I started to buy second hand chisels, I got toknow which ones were of value. Most of them had no or damaged handles. Easy peasy to replace them and I didn't use a jig or a bandsaw. Still have my original handles after 20 years
Some time ago I got a set of Narex chisel blanks, with the intent of making my own handles ... thanks for a good explanation of how to do it.
I just love this channel more and more each year.
Thank you for this video!!! I have been looking for a good set of chisels for a while now and could not part with the amount of money they usually cost. This is perfect and I love the idea of making my own handles.
Year after year you keep on giving good advice.
I made a grip for a cheap sword once that was sanded to loosly fit my fingers. It didn't scream out that it was designed like that but it was great to hold and was nonslip even though it was poly-coated.
That's cool. I'd definitely put that blank on my lathe, but that's what I prefer and that's fine!
Ah Stumpy there you go again making me buy new tools for the shop...just got 4 chisels to make handles for! Hope you're well!
Thanks very much for this. I like to support both Taylor Tools and Neil Pask.
And you, of course. 🙂
Thanks James. I wish I would have caught this video before they ran out of the less expensive kits, but oh well. I hope they'll be back in stock soon.
You have become like the iconic Phil Swift for "Flex seal" commercials man. I bought several items from TT after your reviews and I wanted to try but they were all "SOLD OUT". Hope they will get more as I look forward to owning one of Narex's sets, especially for this price
Those without a drill press: drill the hole first, then shape the handle relative to that hole.
No need to stress over filing straight after already shaping the handle.
Damn you stumpy! I waited 8 hours to watch this video and now all the blanks are sold out!!!! The humanity!!!!!
Looks like I’ll just need to wait for the email when Taylor gets more in stock! Thanks for the tip
I freehand my handles on my edge sander , they come out pretty well, I like wood octagon handles for my hammers too
Thank you for this video James!
I've wanted to purchase some new chisels for some projects I am planning but balked at the high costs.
Thanks to you, I can now move forward with the chisel purchases and save a bundle!
Love your channel. ❤
You too can make your own chisel! All you need to make the handle is a band saw, a hand saw, and _...a chisel._
(I know, I know, it's not actually as silly as it seems, but I just couldn't resist...)
I did it with the exact same jig from Pastmakes for a set of unfinished carving chisels I bought on Dictum (I live in Europe). I made them too large for detail carving chisels but I'm proud of them, the nice thing is I can always rework the handles when I have the time or need. The octogonal shape feels good in the hands ! And he also had a template for a carving knife handle too, which was nice 🙂
The chisels with side bevels ground almost on the back looks so useful but they're usually super expensive ! I don't think I can get the same where I am unless I can get them directly from Narex or something
One point that probably goes unnoticed is the difference in incentives.
You can't sell a fancy handle that catches consumers' attention, so you're forced to beat your competitors by offering better shape, steel or price.
Handle-less chisels get more sales by being good, while handled ones can more often get away by making a fancy, eye-catching handle and skimming on the steel.
Of course there's the drawback that you could screw up your handle design, but that's fixable while bad steel quality isn't.
Just finished handling my Richter set (were out of the regular narex, not disappointed though) , what a great weekend! They turned out great and are a pleasure to use. Made mine out of some scrap blood wood, using the original richter handle design. Thanks for the idea!
From shop tools to kitchen knives having a handle that fits your hand comfortably is as important as the cutting blade itself.
All of the chisel blacks are sold out already. Great job Stumpy!
I love that Taytools sold out in less than one hour
Love this! Clearly how it was done in the day. Great results! Thank you for another great video!
Thank you so much for sharing شكرا لهذه المادة التعليمية القيمة ومسابقات من المفاهيم
Thanks Stumpy and thank you Mike for delivering such a great bargain!!
That was quick. Link shows some sold out already. Thanks for the tip about getting on the mail list.
Hmm! Your never going to get me to give up my socket chisels.
All the chisels are sold out...lol...you called it...guess I need to be faster...thanks for the tips and the video. I recognized the jig from Neil immediately...watch his videos a lot along with yours also...always enjoy your videos.
Fantastic idea James & thanks for the idea & links to products! 👍👍
Out of stock already. Doesn't surprise me. Great video. Thanks.
Pass is a genius for sure
Thanks for the great tip, Stumpy!
Beautiful handle, James! Fantastic work! 😃
Thanks a bunch for all the tips!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I had to add the link to my home screen for later. Those are some crazy good prices
Great video, thanks. I look at small projects like this as great skill builders. They don't take too long, and are cheap, especially if scrap wood is used. Screw it up? Start again; it's easy enough. Save the "good" wood until you're satisified with your skill level.
Cheers!
I'm sure that those are great chisels, but just for a reference, chrome-vanadium is the steel used in Narex-Richter chisels which have shown in some tests to be top notch.
Nice video
I carve fishing plugs , mainly out of Popular
I have some chisels
But for some of the carving a chisel is a must
But I am just using hand power
Also I have replaced the handles on several chisels to allow me to do fine work in different ways
Not brute force , but Popular is soft
So I will be ordering several to let me carve with style
Thank you for this. I've ordered a full set.
Very Interesting! I have never seen chisels for sale without handles. Your viewers were quick, they got over there and bought every Chisel !!! I bought one Narex with a handle (in 40mm or 1 ⁹⁄₁₆") I keep it in my carpenter tool bucket. It is a good chisel at a low cost, which is good if I accidentally hit a nail doing carpentry work. It takes a good edge.
This is fantastic. Sadly now I have to wait for them to get back in stock.
Thanks so much. I don't have any good chisels, so I snaged a set. 😊
For those looking to buy the Richter blanks, I just noticed that the buying the blanks individually is cheaper than buying the '6 blank' set. Check for yourself as prices will change over time
Taylor Toolworks has apparently exceeded their sales goals with just one great video by the venerable Stumpy Nubs! In fact I could not find any NAREX unhandled chisels in the US. Off for the Richters I guess. Pask is near Genius!
Wow, I've got handles. Several types my father had. Also some old chisels I have are bad but the handles are great and can be removed and possibly be reused. Thanks for the source. 😎 Plenty of scraps of good hardwoods about, too. Gives me so many ideas. 🤔😊
Thanks for making this.
Great looking tool 😊
The idea of making a custom handle sounds great! I have big hands and nearly everything requires me to contort my hands in an uncomfortable and inacurate way.
I’m a master locksmith, I use different colored golf balls for my handles
Wow. Sold out already. But they also have kits with the excellent Richter steel. More expensive, but worth it. I like the ash handles on mine, but it might be fun to make on with a bubinga handle. Oh, and now I notice you linked them, too.
Great video, as always. I'm pretty set on chisels but will use this for all the files I totally have not been using unhandled.
Neat idea. Looking forward to trying it. Also...the irony of watching you use a chisel to craft a chisel handle lol
No reason you couldn't use the unhandled blank to make the handle.
Looks really good their Stumpy!
Love your videos and products you suggest. You are easy to trust
