I have the Neiko 9 chisel set. While they are not considered high end chisels by any means, I am quite pleased with them. I cut a 3" through mortice in hard maple using the 1/2" chisel (mallet head) and found the chisel was still sharp afterwards. If you do a search on Amazon you will find them for under $50. The Irwin chisels are no longer produced in England and aren't as good as they used to be.
