Excllent Chisel
I read a review that stated the back was difficult to make flat. A 1/4 chisel is difficult to work on the flat side or the bevel. It requires a good oil stone and improved hand skill.

BACK NOT FLAT.
I bought this chisel to try out, I use the sorby lathe chisels and love them. I have been sharpening this chisel on and off for 2 months. I still have not got the back flat. I use a dmt extra course plate. I'm not sure if I'll ever get a chance to see if it will ever get sharp.
