Stanley 16-977 Fatmax Short Blade Chisel 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The STANLEY 16-977 is a short blade chisel from the FatMax line, designed for precise cutting, paring, and mortising in wood. The shortened blade length gives tradespeople and contractors better control in tight spaces and close-quarter work where a standard-length chisel would be difficult to maneuver. At 0.54 pounds, the tool is lightweight enough for extended use without fatigue. This chisel is suited for finish carpenters, general contractors, and skilled tradespeople who need a dependable hand tool for detailed woodworking tasks.

The STANLEY 16-977 FatMax short blade chisel is intended for residential and light commercial construction applications. It performs well in door hinge mortising, trim carpentry, and general woodworking where accuracy and blade control matter. The compact blade profile makes it a practical choice when working in recessed areas or alongside adjacent surfaces where a full-length chisel blade is impractical.

Installation Notes

This chisel is a hand tool and does not require mechanical installation. Use with an appropriate wooden or rubber mallet when driving the chisel into hardwood; striking with a metal hammer may damage the handle. Keep the blade sharp using a sharpening stone or honing guide for clean, accurate cuts. Always direct cutting force away from the body and secure the workpiece before use.
