London Pattern Chisel Handles at The Best Things
Chisel Handles

Quality chisel handles are almost as important as the blades themselves. A handle that fits properly and feels right is essential to using a chisel effectively. And not least important is the fact that nothing looks better than a nice set of chisels with pretty handles. We have contracted with the last remaining handle maker in Sheffield to make a line of handles for us. Drawing from our extensive antique chisel collection, we have chosen a handle in the "London Pattern" style to reproduce. These handles are available in both Rosewood and Boxwood in 5 different sizes. One of the biggest mistakes we see made in new chisels is that the handles are not sized appropriately to the chisel. In antique chisels the size of the handles were carefully chosen to match the chisel. By offering 5 different sizes of handles we make it possible have just the right size handle for each chisel.

The sizes are the diameter of the ferrule.


The finish on these handles is dipped so there is some finish build up in the details that can be cleaned up with a chisel if desired. A hand rubbed finish, as found on antique chisels, would have been cost prohibitive to reproduce today.
