modified parabolic curve. This design directs the striking force to the center of the tool head to allow slow metal displacement. The parabolic curve controls mushrooming to reduce chipping and splitting. Heads should be re-dressed to their original shape with hand files as necessary. The tough steel alloy is machined and differentially heat treated for optimum performance. The hardness of the striking head is reduced to help toughness and add qualities that result in a slower mushrooming of the striking surface.
