A Stanley-branded chisel with a strong rating history, but the cast iron spec on file is unusual enough that it is worth checking Stanley's own listing photos and description before buying.

Overview
Stanley's 1-12-220 chisel carries an unusual cast iron material spec and a 1.8 lb weight, heavier than the forged steel build typical of most bench chisels.
Cast iron is an unusual material callout for a chisel, most bench and mortise chisels are forged steel with a wood or plastic handle, so this may point to a chisel that ships with a cast iron guide or striking component rather than the blade itself. The listing carries no seller description or buyer reviews to clarify further, so treat the exact construction as unconfirmed.

Who it's for
Best approached by buyers who can confirm the exact configuration against Stanley's own product page before purchase, since the material spec here does not match a standard chisel build.
