Frequently asked questions about stone carving hand tools
I'm not sure which type of hand tool I need — where do I start?
It depends on the stage of your work. For roughing out and splitting stone, start with splitting hammers or a wedges and shims set. For shaping and detailed carving, stone chisels and toothed chisels are the tools most carvers reach for. New to stone carving altogether? A complete carving set is the simplest way to start.
What's the difference between hand tools and pneumatic tools?
Hand tools are struck manually with a mallet or hammer, giving direct, quiet control at a slower pace. Pneumatic tools use compressed air to remove material faster with less physical effort. Many carvers use both: pneumatic tools for roughing out, hand tools for detail and finishing. See our pneumatic chisels range for the powered option.
Do I need different tools for different types of stone?
Yes. Softer stones such as limestone and marble work well with steel tools. Harder, more abrasive stones like granite call for tungsten carbide (Widia) tools, which hold their edge much longer.
