Recently I spent a lot of time and effort redesigning my website to offer more tool options for my customers. No two woodworkers are alike. They work on different types of projects, are different sizes and require different tools. No other company offers as many choices to customize your tools as Blue Spruce Toolworks.
One of our most popular tools is our Dovetail Chisel. It fills a niche for those who need to do precision work and do not want the bulkiness of a full size bench chisel. It is a blend of a bench chisel and paring chisel in a smaller package.You can chop with it, pare with it and add design details with it. It may become your favorite chisel of all time :) It is now available with four different styles of handles. Shown below are the style options you may choose from with a simple drop-down box on the website: Long, Standard, Compact and Round.
Also available are three wood choices including resin infused Curly Maple, Cocobolo and African Blackwood as well as a custom wood option.
Furthermore, we are now adding the option of brass or black ferrules. But best of all, we can now add flutes to the long and standard handles for all of our chisel styles! This gives the handle an unprecedented feel for a sure grip and positive feedback. And they look so very nice too.
Check out the new website and configure your own, made to order, just for you, Dovetail Chisels or other tools for your finest work.
The selections are almost too much to make.
It is top shelf work you guys do, and I really appreciate it as a woodworker.
I am making my decisions on what combinations will work best for the kind of joinery i do most.
I just wanted to thank you for sharing your expertise with the woodworking community.
Blue Spruce is #1.

Impressive, you have wonderful tools, chisels CAN NOT be beat, but my budget only allows me to have a few, so they (your chisels), are not my beater tools, will add more as by allowance permits. Suggest at very least pick up one chisel to do your own test. KM.
I was given a set of these chisels and a marking knife for a gift a couple of years ago. They are outstanding. I’ve even built a special case for them. They are beautifully balanced, maintain a very sharp edge and are a joy to use. I would highly recommend a set to anyone who enjoys fine joinery work.
I love your handle shape, wood, ferrule and flute options! You are putting other chisel-makers to shame, I know that some of the options are more cosmetic than practical, but your handle shapes are an ideal selection to fit nearly every craftsman, depending on his or her style or what he or she is trying to accomplish. A big think you and pat on the back for being willing to be so individualized! I am picking out my choices for a new set of dovetail chisels right now.
I am still trying to decide if this “New Tool” is right handed or left handed..
I have recruited my wife and a 12-of Stella and Yuengling for a weekend of experimentation

Hi Dave, I would like a set of chisels where each of them balance at the ferrule.
