Caleb, I've looked at the link at the new bevel edged framing chisels and frankly I don't get the design. If the beveled sides do not extend to the cutting edge, what is the purpose of the beveling other than designery whiz bang appearance? Plus at a forty dollar premium (over the other Timber Tools straight sided chisels and the Barrs), I would give the beveled chisels a pass, unless my understanding of the design developes into an appreciation of some advantage.
