	The user strikes the handle or padded end of the chisel with a heavy object such as a [[hammer]] or large rock, angling the chisel head to achieve the desired direction of chipping. In order to use a chisel on something, the material being chiseled must be softer than the material the chisel head is made from. For example, a chisel head made of soft [[sandstone]] would itself break if one attempted to use it to chisel a harder material such as [[obsidian]].
