Drawing on a decade of forging kitchen knives and a background of gold and silversmithing, Two Hands Bench Chisels have been meticulously developed by Rowan McLachlan at the Two Hands Forge workshop in Castlemaine. Bench testing by Alastair Boell at the Melbourne Guild of Fine Woodworking and feedback from Simeon Dux and Fred Ganim has provided the foundation for the development of the chisels.
