    Default Wanted: 3 Titan's

    I'm after: 1/4", 1/2" and 1" (and maybe a "bigger than 1" size also) non-beveled edge, not sockets, titans at reasonable prices.

    Can anyone help? I know I can go to eBay, but at least via this forum I know what I'm getting.

    John

    Are you after "heavy tangs" (Registered handle) or "light tangs" (Wood or Swedish pattern handle)???

    This is my current collection (not including the 3 corner hardware chisels)...a 3/4 and a 3/8. I'm not a collector, or a chisel purist. My new Harold and Saxons are going to be bevel edged, that's why I'm after straight edges, and I wasn't after sockets as the 2 that I have aren't. Apart from that I don't really care all that much. Thanks again

    Did you get the chisels ?? If not I can do the sizes you want in heavy tang with mixed blade stamps (eras), original handles (but no decals) for $15 each plus postage. PM me if interested.

    I think we're supposed to open forum this stuff except for addresses and quotes.

    In answer to your pm I have disposable spares in all sizes in Hvy tang except 1/8th, 1 3/4 and 2 inch. All with original Titan handles, in good nick. I keep all decals and very hard to get sizes (as above) for my collection. All chisels very clean but not sharpened to secondary bevel otherwise I would cut myself to bits when handling. If you want 3/8th, 5/8th and 7/8ths I'll have to charge a bit more (extra $5).

    From what I've read, Titan firmer non-bevel wooden handle came in 12 sizes: 1/8" 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" 5/8" 3/4" 7/8" 1" 1 1/4" 1 1/2" 1 3/4" 2".

    You don't have 3, and I have a shiny 3/4. When you say clean, I'm assuming that they look like the 3/4" in the photo that I posted. If that is the case (naturally like all tools you buy, they need sharpening to your own specs), I'm interested all except the 3/4". Is there any chance you could post a pic before I post a definite "I'll take it"? I've got another member I need to get back to regarding his offer.

    As requested. Quarter inch through to 1 1/2 inch minus 3/4 inch which you have. Handle of 1 1/2 inch OK but cosmetically a bit ratty unfortunately.

    FYI. Here is my new chisel set, inside the new leather tool roll that I made tonight, using plans that I saw on the fine woodworking website.

    Now to spend hours sharpening...
