Butt Chisel RICHTER

The compact RICHTER finishing chisel is the ideal choice for craftsmen who require perfect control and a clean cut, even in very confined workspaces.

This chisel is designed for maximum precision in fine woodworking tasks, such as aligning hinges, finishing joints, and detailed work in confined spaces.

Thanks to its short and sturdy design, this chisel is the ideal choice for carpenters and craftsmen who demand uncompromising performance and a clean cut even in small workspaces.

The RICHTER EXTRA brand represents our premium line of joiner’s chisels, created to mark the 100th anniversary of the factory’s founding by Václav Richter. It represents the absolute pinnacle of our carpentry tool lineup. Perfect comfort is guaranteed by a hand-polished handle made of domestic ash, reinforced with a solid stainless steel ferrule and a leather pad for effective shock absorption from the mallet. We provide a lifetime warranty on this uncompromising quality of materials and craftsmanship.

Unique cryogenic blade treatment

The chisel blade is forged from premium Cr-V steel and undergoes a special cryogenic treatment. Immediately after initial hardening, the cryogenic process cools the steel to very low temperatures using liquid nitrogen down to -190 °C. This completes the transformation of austenite, which increases both the hardness and toughness of the steel. Thanks to the fine grinding, polishing, and super-thin sides, the chisel is ideal for extremely precise work even in the tightest spaces.
