The Footprint Long Cold Chisel is a heavy-duty manual striking tool engineered for professionals and serious DIYers involved in masonry demolition, stone shaping, or brickwork. Its primary benefit is the 450mm length, which offers excellent leverage and clearance, though users should note that as a manual tool, it requires a significant physical effort and appropriate hand protection during operation.

Yes, it is designed for heavy-duty masonry work, including concrete, brick, and stone.
A heavy club hammer or a 2lb to 4lb lump hammer is recommended for optimal impact force.
No, the edge is part of the integrated drop-forged design. You maintain it by sharpening it when it becomes blunt.
No, this model does not include a hand guard. It is recommended to use appropriate gloves for safety.
The length provides extra reach and leverage, which is particularly useful for deep masonry tasks or working in tight corners.
This Footprint cold chisel is proudly made in Britain.
Use a metal file or a bench grinder to re-profile the edge, ensuring you keep the steel cool by dipping it in water frequently.
Periodically grind off the mushroomed metal at the head of the chisel to prevent sharp flakes from flying off during impact.
No specific assembly is required for this tool; it is ready to use straight out of the packaging. To maintain performance, ensure the cutting edge is kept sharp using a file or bench grinder, taking care not to overheat the metal during sharpening as this can destroy the temper. When not in use, store the chisel in a dry, low-humidity environment to prevent surface oxidation. If the striking end begins to mushroom after heavy use, carefully grind down the flared edges to prevent dangerous metal shards from breaking off during future strikes.
