Installation Notes

This is a hand tool requiring no installation. Carpenters and finish tradespeople should ensure the blade edge is properly honed before use to achieve clean cuts and reduce the risk of the tool slipping. When striking the handle with a mallet, use a mallet rated for chisel use to avoid damaging the handle. Keep the cutting path clear of fasteners and foreign material that could chip the blade.
