Yes, natural obsidian can chip, crack, and break if hit by something. Aztecs used obsidian in arrow heads, and you can easily chip obsidian with a well placed hit with a rock. In other words: you can break obsidian easily.
Obsidian is not an artificial stone. Obsidian is a naturally formed gemstone. It is formed by the sudden cooling of magma after the eruption from the back mountain pass and the extremely low temperature around it. As one of the common gemstones in life, obsidian is usually made into various accessories to wear, such as obsidian pendants, obsidian bracelets and other accessories. But in addition, because of the extremely sharp nature of the fractured part of obsidian, obsidian is currently used to make surgical blades as well.

Well it is a tool/rock made from volcanic glass. The Aztec used it a lot to build statues and shelter. Obsidian is well suited to 'flaking" or "napping" which is the art of creating a sharp edge. Obsidian will flake down to a molecular edge, being a type of naturally occurring glass it is high on the hardness scale. Even today, some surgical scalpel tips are fabricated from obsidian.
