They have a good range of Narex chisels and others. I like the Narex.
You could always pop in for a cuppa.

Thanks everyone I like the look of the Narex ones
Roger that would be a good idea unfortunately following the surgery on Thursday I am not allowed to drive. Are these the same thing?

Matthew at Workshop Heaven saw the originals which were a little rough and ready, liked them, then contacted the Chinese factory and went out there to get them to do a more refined version, to his more exacting specs, which are, I believe, exclusive to him.
I think they cost a couple of quid more than Narex you can buy elsewhere but he had the ferules upgraded, slightly better steel, had the edges ground down to a slimmer edge etc.
Enjoy.

Hi Mark
The chisels I have are made in Czechoslovakia rather than China.
I like the look of workshop heaven their service is very good so far they have some very nice Japanese hand saws that will be my next purchase.
