[Kondo] Hex-Point Carbide-Tipped Chipping Chisel (Brass-Wrapped) Body:19mm (0.75") Carbide Tip:9x12mm (0.35x0.47") [KMF100105]

This handcrafted [Kondo] chipping chisel features a rugged hexagonal carbide tip attached to a comfortable round steel body. As the most compact size in the light-weight tier, it excels in tight, close-quarters work, providing unmatched precision for delicate, light-impact clearing. It is a vital tool for perfecting the final stone-to-stone seating in Dry Stone Walling (DSW), intricate traditional stone texturing in Japanese Gardens, and high-precision detail carving in architectural masonry.

The brass-wrapped sleeve provides steady shock mitigation to the hand, ensuring patient, quality craftsmanship over long hours. ⚠️ WARNING: To prevent premature failure of the thick brass joint, proper handling by an experienced user is essential. Continuous dragging or lateral forces must be strictly avoided by lifting the tool slightly between strikes.

Please adjust an angle in Aoto of the GC whetstone 120H according to the stone to be used before beginning to use. When using it for soft stones, such as the Shirakawa stone and an Oya stone , it is about 60 degrees. In the case of granite, it is common to adjust to an obtuse angle rather than 55 degrees.

If you are a professional, the optimal SETTO for Angle picking Chisel of this size (Diameter=22mm Carbide bits=9mm*12mm / Brass brazing) is a 1.0 kg thing. However, when there is little experience, please use SETTO lighter than this.
