Edges that invite focus

Hand-forged clarity

Big tools can blur intention when the grain turns tricky. The Hand-Forged Roughing Knife, Blade 5 cm, brings scale and control back to the fingertips, so shaping and detail read clean. Its ash handle settles naturally in the palm during steady, unhurried passes. A small leather sheath keeps it poised for the next session rather than buried in a drawer.

Cuts that read true

When a knife answers the hand, ideas move straight into the wood. This 52100 steel edge arrives sharp and stays honest through soft and hardwoods, helping lines stay crisp and curves feel deliberate. Right- or left-handed, the tool disappears and the work shows.

For the close worker

Woodcarvers and whittlers who value compact balance, a ready-to-use edge, and a handle that feels calm and sure over time.

In practice

Reach for it to rough in forms and then refine facets on spoons, figures, and chip-carved details at the same bench.
