Q: Can this chisel be used without the guide block?
Yes, though this magnetic corner chisel is most accurate with the guide block in place, since its magnets and outside faces keep the blade square to the routed pocket every time.

Yes, though this magnetic corner chisel is most accurate with the guide block in place, since its magnets and outside faces keep the blade square to the routed pocket every time.
Hone one face at a time with a fine hone that has abrasive on only one side, checking often that each edge stays straight and square before moving to the second face.
The two cutting edges meet right at the corner, so honing one face can create a step on the adjacent face near the inside corner if you work too fast or skip checking the edge.
It's honed with a 35° bevel on each face and hardened to Rc60 for a long-wearing edge.
