      Those saws never really kick back. The slow RPM, ratio of power to weight and especially the diameter of the blade make it far less powerful than normal size saws per kilo. They just stop and that's it.

For example in large production buildings where the roof construction is made from wood. Or pole frame buildings. Basically any beam that you'd have to cross cut multiple times to go through.

    For general chisels - you should not use a hammer or a mallet just the palm of your hand. But is you have to then the correct tool for driving a chisel is a mallet. The hammer delivers a shock type blow which is unsuitable for controlled removal of waste using a chisel.
