Woodworking chisels exist in countless varieties and can be used to break chunks out of a piece of wood (e.g. for joinery) or to create fine details of a work of art, depending on the kind you choose.

The proper driving tool for bevel edge chisels is a wooden mallet which is only used on those chisels that have a metal ring at the end of their handle (or a metal rod going all the way through). Handles without that reinforcement will not withstand hammering without damage! Drive these by hand or using a light piece of scrap wood and they should be fine.
To learn how to sharpen and hone these properly, have a look at the first part of this great video class. They are wall-mounted using a 3D printed holder.

Not to be driven with hammers or heavy mallets!
We have 12 carving chisels in different shapes. Their wall holder is a reclaimed carved cabinet door that hangs on the wall near the scroll saw.
