Wide chisel with one bevel, sometimes without a neck. Since it does lighter work than the firmer chisel, it is theoretically not beaten with the wooden hammer, but pushed. It is also sharper than the firmer chisel. The Japanese chisel (Japanese: tsuki nomi) is longer than the western one and is always used with both hands. It is used for finishing mortise and tenon joints and grooves. [MOT]

The pitcher is a short, heavy chisel with flattened cutting edge (approx. 4 mm wide) to chop off large pieces of a rough natural stone block as a first operation and thus get a good start for shaping the edge. The stonecutter strikes the pitcher with his stonemason’s hammer. The paviour uses it to break excess pieces of paving tiles and split pavement stones (1). This pitching tool is to be distinguised from the charring chisel and the flat chisel. [MOT] (1) JELLEMA: 38-39.
