In making a mortise and tenon joint the bruzz chisel is used to make the mortice or hole, usually rectangular, in a piece of timber which will receive the tenon, a peg-like piece of wood shaped to fit into the hole. The chisel is tapped with a mallet and the wood it loosens may be hooked out. This chisel was made by Richard Melhuish of Fetter Lane, London, circa 1930. The iron blade is rusted and the wooden handle is chipped and loose. It was purchased new by the donor and, although commonly a tool used in wheelwright, it was not used for that purpose.
