The basic cold chisel has been reinvented by adding a large polymer cap and an oil resistant cushion grip that results in a far safer and much more comfortable tool to use. With a 250-percent larger striking surface, the new design eliminates tool mushrooming and flying metal chips while offering far better hand protection from miss hits and glancing blows. The patented polymer cap not only efficiently transfers the energy of the blow, it reduces noise and vibration by over 90-percent.
