The problem is that a few of the green see-thru chisels have 10-15 percent

I'm not sure whether the cause is the a 12-oz. iron hammer or the way I pound
them. What's the best way to repair these tool?

There are two problems:
1) You bought cheap, low-quality chisels.
2) You should be using a wooden or urethane mallet, not an iron hammer, on a
plastic striking surface.

The best way to "repair" them is to throw them out, buy better chisels, and
treat the new ones properly.
