Woodcraft Supply carries a variety of wonderful chisels. They must have a web page, but there's nothing like dropping by one of their brick and mortar establishments. There's a website for Mazzaglia Tools: <http://www.geocities.com/mazzaglia_tools>. He should be exhibiting at Arlington, check him out. I believe he worked (possibly still does) at the Mason & Hamlin factory in Haverhill, MA, from which experience he has adapted various jigs (e.g. hammer tailing & tapering tools, etc.), and developed several specialized tools. Anyways, his "mini brochure" lists seven notching chisels, two bearing saws, and a special set of bearing gauges. Highly recommended by Bruce Clark of the M&H factory.
