Overview
Six alloy steel chisels make up the Mayhew 60560 set, built with alloy steel handles and weighing 1.7 pounds all together. Made for metalworking and general shop tasks that call for cutting, shaping or driving with a hammer.
Both the blade and handle are alloy steel, a construction choice that favors durability under hammer strikes over the softer grip of rubber-handled designs. Coming as a 6-piece set, it covers a range of sizes or shapes for varied cutting jobs rather than a single chisel for one task.

Who it's for
Mechanics, welders and DIY metalworkers who need a set of striking chisels on hand will get the most from this set. Woodworkers looking for fine paring chisels should look at wood-handled options instead.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- All-alloy steel build for durability under impact
- Comes as a 6-piece set
- Compact 1.7 lb total weight
- Metal handles offer less cushioning than rubber-grip designs
Performance notes
All-alloy steel construction, blade and handle alike, is meant to hold up to repeated hammer strikes without the handle degrading the way a plastic or wood handle can over time. The 1.7 pound total weight for six pieces keeps individual chisels light enough for one-handed use.
