The invention relates to a shank chisel comprising a chisel head (10) and a chisel shank (20), wherein the chisel shank bears a clamping sleeve (23), in which the chisel shank is held captively in the direction of its longitudinal axis and freely rotatably about its longitudinal axis. To allow such a shank chisel to be both assembled and disassembled through a chisel receptacle (31) of a chisel holder (30) that is formed as a receiving bore, it is provided according to the invention that the chisel shank bears at its end remote from the chisel head a shank extension (20.1), that the shank extension has a tool receptacle (26), and that the tool receptacle is accessible by way of a spacing region of the shank extension in the axial direction of the chisel that is set back from the lateral surface of the chisel shank and/or from the lateral surface of the clamping sleeve.
