Chisel

The stick chisel is a beekeeping tool and a "universal tool" for beekeepers . It is used, for example, to separate the beehive frames from each other and to remove honeycombs from the hive. It is also used to scrape off propolis , wax structures in the hive and its moving parts, the honeycombs .

In contrast to a normal chisel, the stick chisel is bent by 90 ° at one end and also sharpened at both ends. This blade is used for scraping. It usually consists of high quality spring steel .
