A chisellike tool is a type of hand tool used for shaping and smoothing wood, stone, or metal. An ADZ (3 letters) is a tool with a curved blade set at right angles to a handle, used for smoothing or carving wood or stone. An ADZE (4 letters) is similar to an ADZ but has a longer handle and a blade set at a greater angle to the handle. A HOE (3 letters) is a tool with a flat blade attached to a long handle, used for digging, weeding, and other gardening tasks.
