No a bolser chisel is just a normal chisel but usually wider and used on
bricks etc, the tip flares out from the handle sometimes to around 2"

Thanks

Subject: [Spridgets] Bolster chisel

One of the restoration manuals mentions a bolster chisel, which in the book
appears to be shaped like a wood chisel - thin and flat on one side.  I once
had a small one of these with a handle bent upward for cutting flush, now
long lost.  I have not been able to find a metal-cutting chisel that is
either flat on one side or very thin.  Is there another name for this kind
of tool?
