text: Softwood: if you are working only with softwoods, such as spruce, pine or similar, especially if you're touching up some previous work without a hammer – ie, using only the pressure of the ball of your hand – the bevel angle can be slightly reduced, to 23° for western chisels and to 28° for Japanese chisels.
