Customer Reviews

Determined to design a better mortise chisel, IBC and I teamed up and developed what I consider to be the best woodworking mortise chisel on the market today. These chisels meet all five criteria of a great mortise chisel: comfortable, high quality steel, sides square to the back (+/- .002 of an inch accuracy), flat back, and the ability to change handles.

Product Details:

Size: Mortise chisel handle length: 3.87 inches. Mortise chisel total length: approximately 9 inches. Mortise chisel blade length, including the tang is approximately 6 inches. Blade width: 3/8 inch, blade height: 1/2 inch.

Handle: Cherry handle is turned precisely on a lathe so they fit nicely to the ferrule and end cap and have a butter smooth surface. Shaped for a comfortable grip in the hand, they are finished with four coats of tung oil.
Steel: Made from AISI High Vanadium A2 tool steel which holds an edge beautifully. Fully stress relieved, triple tempered, cryogenically treated and hardened to 60-62 HRC. Primary bevel is ground to 30°.
Flat Back. Each chisel is tested on a granite reference surface to ensure the back is flat to within .0005 of an inch.
Design: The blade tang extends through a hardened steel ferrule and into a threaded hardened steel core that is inserted through the center of the wood handle and is securely attached to an aluminum striking cap. This design allows you to easily replace the standard cherry handle with your own custom turned wood handle.
Made in Canada

Great product

The Cosman products do not disappoint. Excellent quality.

Best mortise chisel

I’ve owned a few different brands of mortise chisels and they don’t compare to Rob Cosman’s IBC mortise chisels. Nice weight and the cherry handle is very comfortable. I had the pleasure of trying these during Rob’s Train the Hand workshop in June. Worked great.

Discounted chisels and RobCosman shirts

Took advantage of Rob’s discounted chisels to add an1/8th inch bench, and 1/4 and3/8 inch mortise chisels. Arrived well packed and in great shape with beautiful handles. The shirts were $10, do had to get two of them. Thanks for the call about the order Rob, and all the great work you and your team does.

simply the best

IBC chisels are exceptionally well crafted, a pleasure to work with.
I just wish they would get around to making some plain blades.

I'm slowly converting all my chisels to Cosman's IBC

I think I have my "set" of mortise chisels now (1/4, 3/8, 1/2). I've also purchased the half-blind and 1/8" 17° softwood chisels.

All of these are so nicely balanced that my old Robert Sorby bench chisels seem clunky and borderline uncomfortable by comparison. So I guess I need to replace them next…

By the way, I much prefer the Cosman cherry handles to either the Walnut or Maple handles from IBC. They just feel better in your hand. Can I buy replacement handles from you, Rob?
