Default 1/8" Chisel

I need an 1/8" chisel to clean up some cuts from a CNC machine, 1/8" in

Do you guys have any suggestions? Is the typical length of the 1/8" chisel
going to be a problem trying to cut end grain? 1/8" would seem to be awful
flexible...

I was hoping to spend about $10, but a quick search on Amazon shows only
one chisel for that price, a new Irwin Marples that is leaving many
disappointed.

Alternatively, I have some W1 drill rod and a mill... I guess I could make
one but I've already got enough on my plate...

If you have a bench grinder, could you make a chisel out of an
appropriate sized screew driver?
