Chisels can twist?

I started cleaning up some paring chisels for a customer and found one that appears to have twisted. This was found shortly after discovering that another was bowed (probably from being used as a pry bar at some point). I might not have been as annoyed if these were cheap chisels, but they are 2 nearly perfect (looking) 720's.

Chisels do get stuck, from time to time.....like prying open a stuck window....some think they can just twist a chisel to free it up.
Show me a picture, I'll build a project from that

Well, if your chisel is twisted, then I'd say that answers your question. Bent is much more common on chisels found in the wild, but we all know how much ignorant people will abuse chisels when given half the chance.
