Thin Chisels (Usu Nomi)

A set of 3 NOS thin chisels (usu nomi) I picked up during the winter. One has a crack in the Hagane were it is forged to the tang, and I plan to keep it and offer the better two up for sale at some point. They are all ~19mm and appear to be charcoal tempered. They have nice lamination lines on the bevels, and boxwood handles. These types of chisels are not offered by any dealer that I know of in the US. I They are stamped what roughly looks like: "銀".
