cold chisel
Hardened steel blade
A cold chisel is a metal tool with a sharp beveled edge, struck with a hammer to cut or shape metal that hasn't been heated.
The "cold" distinguishes it from chisels used on hot metal in blacksmithing.
Cold chisels are typically made of hardened steel and used for cutting bolts, removing rivets, or chipping away at masonry.
