Stanley FMHT16145 Fatmax Wood Chisel 1 Inch Blade

Product Description

The STANLEY FMHT16145 is a 1-inch folding pocket chisel designed for woodworking and finish carpentry applications. The blade is constructed from hardened and tempered carbon chrome steel for edge retention and durability under mallet strikes. A steel strike cap on the handle end absorbs impact and extends service life. The glass-filled nylon handle with rubber overmold provides a secure grip during controlled paring or heavy chopping. The blade swivels back into the handle for safe storage and transport, making this chisel well-suited for contractors and finish carpenters who carry tools in a pouch or bag.

This chisel is used in residential and light commercial woodworking tasks including mortising, trimming, and general wood shaping. The folding pocket design makes it practical for trim carpenters, cabinet installers, and general contractors who need a compact, job-site-ready chisel. The 1-inch blade width is a common size for door hinge mortises, lock strikes, and similar finish work encountered on residential remodel and new construction sites.

Installation Notes

Wood chisels are typically used by carpenters, finish trades, and general contractors. Before use, confirm the blade is fully extended and locked in position. When striking with a mallet, use only the steel strike cap end of the handle. Keep the blade sharp and store the chisel in the folded position to protect both the cutting edge and the user.
