Cold Chisels - Bowdl?

[heathen]

Hi folks, I'm new here and I have a question for you fellas. I used to own a really excellent flat cold chisel that I think was branded "Bowdl". It was lost a few years ago and I'd like to replace it and get some other sizes. A quick Google search turns up nothing so that has me thinking I've got the name wrong. Any idea what I might have had? On the same note, what is the best brand of chisel for cutting soft metal if I need to find a substitute?

Thanks for any help! Heath

I don't think it was Freud, but honestly I'm not real sure. Any other ideas?

There's a lot of companies... Mibro, Footprint, "Tekton", Dasco PRO, Baltimore-Mayhem, Stanley, Martin, Michigan Industrial, Olympia tools, etc.

I've never heard of something near what you mentioned, but if you have to replace it with something, I'd go for Baltimore-Mayhew or Dasco, both available locally with very good prices. (Home depot). If you have any problems, bring it back.

Thanks for all of the suggestions! Dasco is available at most of my local stores. Maybe I'll pick one up and try it out.
