On discount at ScrewFix if you have any butchery coming up. :text-lol:

Good grief! :lol:

But, to be fair, they do say "for use in demolition work" rather than promoting them as actual woodworking tools. So I'd sooner people splashed out £5 each for these, if it means that they don't destroy good old Sheffield made chisels, thinking of them as disposable just because they got them cheap at a boot fair.

That picture isn’t very informative, you could do that with the sharp end anyway.
So what is the serated bit for? I’m unsure how the chisel would help in demolition work really.

I should add that if you hadn't added the second photo, I'd have been oddly pleased that a current manufacturer was trying to help revive the fashion for decorative beading :lol:

Not if there’s not enough room to swing the hammer.

I wonder if that serrated bit on the side is for chopping through nails and screws.
I certainly can see that it would be useful for stuff like taking down plasterboard stud walls.

I think its a solution looking for a problem.

I've done a fair bit of demolition, and I would never need to be that reserved. Hammer, club hammer, sledge hammer. Job done. :eusa-whistle: :eusa-whistle:

I agree with Bob. I've got medium and large crow bars from mid Lid, a 5ft demolition bar and some big hammers. That deals with 90% of demolition. The other 10% falls down by itself.
