This is a great masonry chisel. Well built and strong. It easily splits blocks and bricks. The company is very professional and delivers quickly. I would buy from this company again anytime. Many Thanks.
I saw the video and had to cut the retaining wall bricks in half for my fire pit. This thing works like a charm. I even got it working with a regular hammer, definitely recommend a bigger hammer as the chisel head isn't as big as the others, but it feels solid.
Although the price and specs seemed perfect, this tool struggled to cut the top layer of concrete pavers that were only 1.25 inches thick. The edge quickly dulled, resulting in countless cobblestone losses. I'm sure it would be great for lifting or breaking brickwork. objects, but spend money to notch, cut or trim them. Extra time and frustration at work.
I bought two chisels, one with a rubber grip and handguard and the other. This one worked really well, but I had problems with the other one. I'm a total novice and bought this device to cut paving stones for my patio. I've only had a few dozen cuts. It worked so well that I didn't even try to use the blade I bought for the circular saw.
Although the price and specs seemed perfect, this tool struggled to cut concrete paving blocks as thin as 1.25 inches. The edge dulled quickly, resulting in countless wastes of pavers. I'm sure it would be great to lift or break stone products, but spending money on the scoring, trimming, or trimming added a lot of time and frustration to the job.
Fortunately I did not have enough time to wait for arrival and bought the same chisel from the store. The one from the hardware store worked great, this one did NOTHING with the massive retaining wall block. He is not divided. I compared and found that the blade is so rounded that it cannot split blocks.
