The World's F-mest Chisel<br />
Has Been Exclusively Made Better<br />
MAHOGANY MASTERPIECES for<br />
Sipping green tea with Ouch i-san, master Japanese<br />
chisel maker, we respectfully asked if hewould consider an<br />
important modification of his masterpiece chisels -exclusively<br />
for use by Western woodworkers. We were reluctant to ask<br />
the master to change his ancient design, and careful in our<br />
explanation: All Japanese chisels, whether made specifically<br />
for culling dovetails or not, have their sides ground at 81·<br />
-perfect for softwood dovetails, but too steep an angle for<br />
hardwoods. Much to our amazement, Ouch i-san agreed to<br />
angle the side of his chisels at 76· -the perfect angle for<br />
Western dovetails in hardwoods. These Ouch I (Olichl)<br />
Chisels are exclusively available from MAHOGANY<br />
