The Stone Chisel is a crude chisel knapped from flint. It is a primitive tool that stands in for a metal chisel in masonry, carpentry and early metalwork. It is one of the first tools a survivor can make without a workshop.

It suits survivors who start from nothing in the wild. Its main strength is how cheap it is, just two flint flakes. Its main cost is its crude make, since better chisels can be forged later.

The chisel is crafted with the Knap Stone Chisel recipe. It is also found in anthropology classroom display cases and university storage. The Carpenter is the best occupation for tools. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. The Construction Worker and the DIY Expert also start with some Carpentry skill.

Using


Knap Stone Chisel turns two Sharp Flint Flakes into a Stone Chisel. A hammerstone, mallet or knapping tool does the shaping and is kept. The recipe needs Knapping at level 1.

The chisel counts as both a crude chisel and a carpentry chisel. That lets it serve in many recipes as a kept tool. In masonry it shapes Stone Blocks and makes small and large Stone Wheels. At a forge it helps make Forged Forks and a Frying Pan. In carpentry it fits garden fork heads, rake spikes, sawblades and spade heads onto bats and cudgels.

It is also needed to knap a Stone Drill, a recipe that calls for Knapping at level 5.

The inventory option Research Craft on the chisel teaches four recipes. They are Forge Masonry Chisel, Forge Carpentry Chisel, Knap Stone Chisel and Knap Stone Drill. That makes a found chisel a good way to learn the path from stone tools to forged ones.
