Are Buck Bros chisels any good?
The Hirsch are a little longer than the Buck Bros. but the Buck Bros. chisels are a nice length, not too short as a Japanese chisel, for example. Good deal. My next project is to grind some skew chisels. Maybe Ill have a look at them. I have a set that Ive been using in and around for some time. Sharpened correctly they cut very nicely.

What are the best chisels on the market?
One of the best deals going that I have found is a set of 6 wooden handled chisels from Highland HW. They are made in Eastern Europe and Highland sells a boxed set for $29. I have a set and they are a great value. Maybe not up there with the best but I like them better than my Blue Chips.
