Bought this chisel as I needed one quickly for my fence project rebuild. A heck of a lot of notching in green wood! Had an inch and a half stanely I purchased around two years ago. I sometimes don't like the new and "improved" designs, but this is a plus!!!! The tang goes through the handle. Because of this design improvement, I had excellent ergonomics and I moved through the many new fence posts with relative ease. My friend moved much slower. My other stanley chisel worked well. This one works better. There is no mention of how hard the metal is in this chisel, and I am hoping that this too is an improvement. Especially in sharpening and continuing to maintain an edge. All in all, a pleasant suprise as I purchased it on-line rather in a store.
