Just curious - Wood river socket chisels

[Ronn W]

Has any one tried Wood craft's Wood River socket chisels?  At about $35 each (if purchased separately) they are in the same ballpark as the Stanley Sweethearts.  If you have, what do you think of them?  LInk to the 5/8" chisle for reference.

Ronn, I have not but bought the Stanley SH set at comparably priced and am impressed.

I have the 1/8” , bought it for making 1/4” square mortise for small table spindles. I’m no hand tool expert but this chisel worked well for the job. The bottom face was flat so I just dressed up the cutting-edge to 1200 grit and it cut especially well with just hand pressure.
