Silly Question . . . "Shorty" Ice Chisel
bogtrotter:
A friend recently gave me a 2.5 foot long Mille de Lacs ice chisel as a present.
I hate to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I have to ask - - What is the "point" of a shorty chisel?
I would have thought the body mechanics involved would make it difficult to use a 2.5 foot rather than 5 foot long chisel.
But there presumably must be some advantage/use to the "shorty" or they would not make/sell them, right?

Its for chipping out frozen holes.
MumbleSEED:
I had one and my kiddos used it. As stated above use it to re-open old holes. If you let youngsters use it expect it to be at the bottom of the lake sooner or later even with lanyard. I was gifted a shorty eskimo by someone before and thought it was a joke about well...nevermind about that for today.

Thanks, guys!
That makes sense - - I guess I was just "overthinking" it.
