The Crescent 3/8" Wood Chisel, part CWCH38. It has a wooden handle. Supplier specification: CHISEL 3/8" WOOD.
A wood chisel is ground to a fine bevel for paring and cutting timber. It must never be used on masonry or metal — the edge is too fine and chips immediately. Struck-handle chisels take a mallet; a bench chisel handle is for hand pressure and will split under a hammer.
