Description:

The invention is a chisel that can be used in a mortising machine to cut tenons rather than mortises.

An 1890 issue of "Manufacturer & Builder" has an article about L. F. Parks' "Improved foot-power mortising and tenoning machine". One of the illustrations clearly shows this patent date on a tenon cutter, along with the date for patent 374,425.
