A wood chisel is a cutting tool, used to shape wood. It is important for making mortice and tenon joints, a key component in early buildings and cabinet making. A hammer is sometimes used to drive it through the tough areas. These are finely honed and razor sharp. A stone chisel, sometimes a called a cold chisel, is a cutting tool used to cut and shape stone.
