The Ward brand is highly respected in the woodworking community for it's fine Sheffield steel that really holds an edge, and this antique original is a true gem.

I originally had a collection of over 1,800 antique wood chisels which I sold off about 5 years ago when I fully retired. Now I specialize in finding fine wood carving chisels to hone and restore to put them in the hands of serious wood carvers. My long-time buyers include wood carvers at the Vatican, Smithsonian, and British Royal Estates. I don't make much profit, but the joy of putting fine wood carving tools back in the hands of master carvers is what matters.
