Cold chisel for metal cutting and shaping
The Mayhew Select 12205 cold chisel is built for cutting and shaping metal. Its 3/4 in. tip and 12 in. length suit a range of tasks. The hex tip provides a secure grip during use. Handguards protect hands from flying sparks.
Fits a bench or portable setup
The straight wireway prevents twisting or slipping while striking. No twisting means the chisel stays aligned with the workpiece. Handguards add safety without extra equipment. The tool works wherever a hammer and stable surface are available.
Handles general metalwork tasks
The steel construction withstands repeated hammer blows. The 3/4 in. tip covers common cutting and shaping needs. Very thick or hardened stock may require a larger chisel. The 12 in. length gives reach for deeper cuts.

The chisel measures 12 in. overall, giving you a long reach for metal cutting and shaping tasks.
Does the tool get hot or transmit vibration during all-day metal work?
The steel body conducts heat from the workpiece, and the handguards help shield your hands from flying sparks and some vibration.
What striking tool do I need to drive this chisel?
You must supply a hammer or mallet; the hex tip is shaped for a secure grip while you strike it.
