Key benefits at a glance

• Double beveled blade for versatile marking in multiple directions
• 2.6-inch precision blade ideal for fine scribing and light carving
• Dual grooves support both left- and right-handed use
• Sturdy high-carbon steel blade with durable, CNC-ground edge

Built to last, with craft-focused engineering

The blade is manufactured from 100% high-carbon steel and carefully CNC-ground to maintain a keen edge. Heat-treated and tempered to a minimum hardness of 58 HRC, it is designed to hold a sharp tip through repeated sharpening, making it suitable for a wide range of woods, from soft softwoods to hardwoods like cherry and ash.

A thoughtful combination of form and function appears in the handle: a hardwood grip riveted securely to the tang, with a flat profile that reduces the chances of the knife rolling off a bench. This ergonomic design supports comfortable, controlled marking over extended sessions.

Safety, storage, and everyday use

Included with the knife is a leather sheath that protects the blade when not in use and helps prevent accidental contact. The sheath also makes it easy to transport between workspaces, keeping your tool ready for precise marking on demand.

• Leather sheath shields the blade and reduces the risk of nicks or injuries
• Ergonomic handle minimizes hand fatigue during long sessions
• Suitable for tasks like marking joints, scribing patterns, and fine carving

Real-life uses you can count on

From laying out mortises and shoulder lines to delicate chip carving, this knife delivers clear, consistent marks that align with your measurements and templates. Its versatility shines across hardwoods and softwoods alike, offering a dependable tool for both beginners and seasoned woodworkers.
