Where can I find a good chisel like that? I have feathers and wedges but want a cleaner cut.

Hi! If you can afford it, I would look at chisels with a carbide tip/blade, or high quality steel. If you’re in the US, Trow & Holden makes amazing tools, if you’re in EU i would recommend looking at stenverktyg.se or rockandtools.com

Thank you, I’ve got a lot of granite that needs splitting prior to building my house and just wanted something to make my splits cleaner.

Tracing a line can help a lot with nicer/cleaner splits. A friendly reminder is that it’s always the stone that’s in charge of how it wants to split, you can only “negotiate” and hope for the best 😀 But I must say granite is a very friendly type of stone and is quite willing to collaborate and work with you. Ohh and remember to keep your feet out of the way 🙏
