Stone chisel is also the basic stone carving tool. According to the shape of the blade, it can be divided into pointed chisel, flat chisel, half-round chisel and tooth chisel. The pointed chisel is a basic chisel with large, medium and small size. And the large flat chisel is used for flattening, and the medium and small flat chisel is used for polishing and detailing. The thick-blade semicircular chisel can be used to carve harder stone, and the thin-blade carving patterns and details. Tooth chisel is used to sort rough material into large size.
