    Description

    You are bidding on one set of three Japanese wood chisels as pictured.
    Each chisel has the "wing" on each edge of the blade as can be seen.
    The widest of the three is marked as shown in the 5th and 6th and 7th pictures -- I have no idea which way is up with the mark. The other two have some small marks as shown in the 8th picture.
    The widest chisel has an outside width of about 2-1/8" measured straight across, and the width of the sharp edge not including the "wings" is about 1-7/8" when measured straight across. Overall length including the handle is about 14-1/2".
    The middle chisel has an outside width of not quite 1-3/8" measured straight across, and the width of the sharp edge not including the "wings" is about 1-3/16" when measured straight across. Overall length including the handle is about 16".
    The narrowest chisel has an outside width of about 15/16" measured straight across, and the width of the sharp edge not including the "wings" is about 3/4" when measured straight across. Overall length including the handle is about 16-1/4". The handle tilts upward at the socket.
    Condition of the widest chisel is generally good, with a bit of pitting either on the "wings" or higher up on the front or top surface. The handle has a couple of worm holes but is otherwise good.
    Condition of the middle chisel is good except for the handle, with very little pitting but several dozen worm holes and some light wear on the handle.
    Condition of the narrowest chisel is varied from poor to good, with some pitting nearly all higher up on the front or top side of the blade, but the handle has lots of worm holes and wear.
    The winner gets all 3 chisels!
    SHIPPING: 2 pounds when boxed, insurance is included.
    No International shipping.
    I sell what I enjoy, and I collect antique woodworking tools and I enjoy photography!
    The queue is overflowing with tools right now, as they seem to be finding me faster than I can list them. So please keep watching my postings as I have LOTS more to list!
    Searching my listings: I have lots to see! Some of you will undoubtedly enjoy browsing through everything, but if you want to hone in on something specific, I suggest you click on the "Visit Store" link in Seller Information section in the upper right of this listing. That will lead you to my extensive system of categories.
    You might ask: How can I know when you start new listings? The answer: please click the "Sign Up For Newsletter" link that is just above and to the left of this description, and you will get an email every Friday with my new listings, as well as an email whenever I put any of my Buy It Now items on sale.
    ETHICS IN DESCRIPTIONS: I also buy for my collecting on eBay, and I have been burned too many times by misleading (duh did I forget to mention .......) descriptions, and auctions with pictures only of the left side because the right side was trashed. Life is much simpler for me if I disclose what I know or see about an item before you bid, and especially before you receive it in the mail. I come from the handshake school of doing business, and hopefully you are like me and understand what that means. What goes around, comes around.
    RETURN POLICY: I believe that if you give honest descriptions, and include enough pictures, you shouldn't need a return policy. However, that doesn't mean that I won't make an occasional mistake. Please bid with the assurance that if I have made an error in my listing, I WILL take care of you. And if you have made an error, and bought the wrong size, for example, I will still take care of you (but I’ll let you pay the return shipping!).
    SALES TAX: Interstate sales tax is rapidly becoming a reality in more and more states. If I ship to a state where eBay is required to collect sales tax, eBay will charge you the sales tax for that state.
    There is lots of information available from eBay that explains it in much more detail. The sales tax is completely out of my hands -- I don't have anything to do with deciding whether to charge tax, I don't have anything to do with deciding the tax rate, and I never see any of the funds that are collected, they go directly to eBay.
    SELLING OUTSIDE OF EBAY: Why would I risk my lengthy good standing with eBay to save you a couple of dollars? Especially when you ask on an email that is sent through the eBay email system? Please don't ask, the answer is no.
    SHIPPING IN THE US: I would rather that you spend your money on my stuff, and not on shipping.
    I package well, and have a great track record
    of getting everything to each buyer, and getting it there in one piece.
    I try to pick the best shipping option for each listing, based on what is the least expensive, and based on what I think is needed to protect the item. I use the US Post Office for everything. If the value is 0 or over, eBay requires your signature at the USPS delivery for the buyer and seller protections to be in effect.
    USPS POSTAGE RATE INCREASE AS OF January. Every year the US Postal Service raises rates in mid to late January, and this year is no exception.
    INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I no longer ship Internationally.
    AUCTIONS: I won’t end an auction listing early to sell it to you directly. As a bidder, I really dislike going back at the end of an auction to bid, only to discover that the seller had ended the auction early. So I won’t do that for you, or to you.
    PACKAGING: Please check my feedback -- I package well. I figure if you take the time to purchase from me, then I can take the time to package it well, and not just throw it into a cereal box with a scrap of newspaper.
    I hope someday I will meet some of you as we trudge the happy road of tool collecting!
