A sharp wood chisel in combination with a forstner wood drill bit is used to form this mortise for a half-lap joint in a timber frame. Parts of a wood chisel. Woodworking chisels range from small hand tools for tiny details, to large chisels used to remove big sections of wood, in 'roughing out' the shape of a pattern or design.
The combined blade and handle can reach two feet (60 cm) in length.

A corner chisel is a tool for cutting sharp internal corners in wood, often used for mortise joints or hinge rebates. The hole will typically be cut by a router, or occasionally drilled, leaving rounded corners.
