The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other hand tools and workshop hand tools we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Narex 863600 is a four-piece wood chisel set priced at $83.16 with a 4.7-star rating from 466 reviews. That rating is among the strongest in this group, and Narex is a known name in bench chisels, which makes the set a confident pick for buyers furnishing a bench from scratch.
The listing specifies alloy steel blades with wood handles and a total weight of 880 grams for the set of four. It does not break out the individual blade widths, so if you need specific sizes such as 6 mm or 25 mm, confirm them before ordering.
At $83.16 this is one of the pricier options here, but it spreads across four chisels and carries the highest tier of rating. ToolHandle is an Amazon Associate and earns from qualifying purchases, which does not influence our rankings.

Performance notes
Alloy steel blades with wood handles are the conventional choice for bench and paring work, and the 880-gram weight covers all four pieces in the set. Because the listing does not name the individual widths, match the set to your joinery needs before buying.
