This is a rare C. Hill No. 53-1/2 Fish Tail Skew 3/8 Inch Wood Carving Chisel This C. Hill Wood Carving Chisel is 8-1/2 inches long with a 3/8-inch-wide rare style No. 53-1/2 Fish Tail Skew Chisel Blade. It is marked with the distinctive C. Hill and cannon logos on the blade, along with the word "Sheffield." THe No. 53-1/2 Fish Tail Skew Chisel blades were typically special order items in this late 1800s to early 1900s timeframe and rarely found. The nice hardwood handle is in excellent condition with nice wood grain and light signs of use. The steel blade has normal signs of age and the usual amount of staining, and a sharp edge ready to fine hone and put to work. It came in a large lot of wood carving chisels I acquired from a working woodshop that I am listing in the coming months. A stellar Wood Chisel made from fine steel by a superb British chisel-maker of their time for serious wood carving. My chisels are always in clean, sharp, ready-to-use condition without damaged wood handles that you'd have to repair. So be careful of some shark-like tool sellers on eBay who would have you pay higher prices for lower quality wood chisels. No Reserve because I originally got it for a fair price and want it to go to a real carpenter, cabinetmaker, or woodworker who will put it to good woodworking use.
