This reminds me of a really interesting safety tip in the woodworking world: A chisel is always a two handed tool. Either two hands on the tool itself, or one hand on the chisel and another holding a mallet. Either way, the piece needs to be in a vice or otherwise rendered immobile. Every dumb thing I've done with a chisel has been trying to use it at an odd angle or stabilizing the piece with one hand and holding the chisel in the other.
