A chisel is simply an iron hand tool used to make small cuts and forms into wood. It is generally flat or "U" shaped at one end and progresses to a cylinder that is used as a handle. The chisel is used in conjunction with the hammer, which applies the force to make the chisel cut into the wood. Larger chisels can also be used to split wood, creating smaller, easier to use pieces.
