Product DescriptionSTANLEY 16-975 FM WCHL 1/2"Amazon.comThe Stanley 1/2-Inch Wide FatMax Short Blade Chisel is an ideal tool for the dedicated woodworker who repeatedly requires perfect grooves, crisp carvings and timesaving precision. The FatMax chisel provides increased strength in the neck area where common breakage occurs. Each chisel is friction-welded for a stronger blade and improved performance. The hardened and tempered high-chrome, carbon-alloy steel is ball-bearing grade; it allows the chisel blade to stay sharp longer, unlike forged blades that require more frequent sharpening for edge retention. Designed for resisting tough impact and treatment, the ergonomic bi-material handle has steel striking caps, allowing the user to work with steel-headed hammers. The FatMax chisel brings the innovative traditions of the FatMax line to those who demand and rely on high performance hand tools. The 9-inch blade offers exceptional strength and control. It comes with a reusable, full-length blade protector that can be wall-mounted for easy storage.From the ManufacturerThe Stanley Works, originally a bolt and door hardware manufacturing company located in New Britain, Connecticut; was founded in 1843 by Frederick T. Stanley. A few years later, in 1857, Fredericks cousin, Henry Stanley, founded The Stanley Rule and Level Company. In 1920, The Rule and Level Company merged with The Stanley Works and would go on to become its famous Hand Tools Division. Over the years, The Stanley Works has produced some of the most innovative and useful tools ever made. Among these tools are the Bailey Plane, the Surform shaper, the PowerLock tape rule and most recently the FatMax line of products. Today, more than ever, Stanley continues to be an industry leader in tool innovation. In 2001, Stanley introduced more than 100 new products, bringing to 400 the number of new products introduced in the past four years. As a direct result of Stanleys commitment to excellence, Stanley was awarded the Prestigious Golden Hammer Award, presented for New Product Innovation in both 2000 and 2001.
