Overview
The FLEXCUT MT23 is a micro chisel priced at $22.23 with a 4.7-star rating from 404 reviews. FLEXCUT is well known for carving tools, and the high rating reflects that reputation for fine edges.
The listing specifies high carbon steel, an ash wood handle, a 1.5 mm width and a 0.5-inch length, marking this as a small detail tool rather than a bench chisel. High carbon steel takes and holds a keen edge, which matters most for the delicate cuts this size is built for.
With 50 units bought in the past month and a low $22.23 price, it is an easy add for a carver's kit. ToolHandle is an Amazon Associate and earns from qualifying purchases, which does not influence our rankings.

Performance notes
High carbon steel and the narrow 1.5 mm blade suit fine carving and detail cuts, where edge sharpness matters more than blade width. The 0.5-inch length keeps it short for close control rather than heavy mallet work.
