<p><b>New page</b></p><div>A '''chisel''' is a [[tool]] with a flat, sharpened end used to remove material from [[wood]], [[metal]] or [[stone]]. The sharpened edge is typically made from a hard metal.<br />
<br />
Chisels can be used by hitting the non-sharpened end with a [[mallet]] or they might be pressed against a spinning piece of [[wood]] or [[metal]] such as might be found on a [[lathe]] or [[pole lathe]].<br />
<br />
[[Medieval]] chisels can be seen on [[manuscript]] images from very early in history and the [[pole lathe]] was known from at least the [[Viking]] Age. Chisels for lathes have longer handles than ones that are struck.<br />
<br />
A chisel with a U-shaped [[blade]] is called a '''gouge'''. <br />
