Awesome Chisels

This hefty hand tool from Rogan USA is ideal for prying items apart. It’s made from 1/4″ thick high-carbon steel and weighs 11 oz. Its triple-ground edge works as a chisel, and its full-tang construction means it won’t fall apart, even with heavy use. We suggest wrapping its handle with paracord for comfort and grabbing the optional Kydex sheath.

Portuguese street artist Vhils creates incredible large-scale portraits by chipping away at the surface of concrete walls with an electric hammer drill. This short video gives us a glimpse of the artist working on a giant face. His Instagram is packed with similarly impressive works.

For this project, metalsmith Shurap created a gigantic chisel using numerous layers of steel. The oversized tool is designed for woodworking, but is so beautiful that it could just be a work of art on a stand. Watch how the intricately-carved handle was made here.
