Frequently asked questions

Do I need a hammer to use this?

Yes, the bolster is designed to be struck with a lump or club hammer; it is not for hand pressure alone.

What is the hand guard for?

The moulded guard sits above the grip to help protect fingers from a glancing hammer strike.

Can it cut concrete or stone, or just brick?

The blade is suited to bricks and composite blocks, and can also trim concrete and stone edges, though it is not intended for heavy demolition of thick concrete.

Is the blade sharpened or does it need sharpening?

It is supplied with ground edges ready to use; it is not designed to be re-sharpened like a chisel.

What is the blade made from?

Carbon (spring) steel, ground to a clean edge.

Will it fit a standard tool bag or roll?

At 255mm long and 0.357kg, it is compact enough for a standard tool bag or belt.

Is this bolster right for demolition work as well as new build?

It suits both - splitting brick and block on new work, and trimming or breaking out sections during renovation and demolition.
