Details:
These double edged single bevel crooked knife blades are approximately 1" long, 1/4" wide and are great for small carvings and fine details.
If you need a knife for doing precision work, these are the knives you want.
The handle is 9" to 11" long, made of yellow cedar and is longer than most knife handles. It is suitable for single or double handed use. Many artists really enjoy the extra length of these knife handles.
Construction:
The knife blade is made from 1/16" thick high carbon tool steel with nickel for added durability and corrosion resistance, expertly heat treated to produce one of the strongest and sharpest knives on the market. It comes razor sharp and ready to carve.
The blade is epoxy cast solidly into the handle using a proprietary process and then bound in compression with tarred seine twine for ultimate strength. It will never come loose and I offer a 1 year warranty against all manufactures defects.
Additional Info:
This crooked knife is a great tool for hollowing out concave and organic features, such as found on figurines and masks. The tip can be used to get into areas that a straight wood carving tool like a typical straight knife, chisel or gouge could not reach due to obstructions or cut properly due to grain direction.
This style of wood carving tool is also known as a hook knife, bent knife, spoon carving knife, bowl carving knife and Mocotaugan, its a tool with as many names as it has uses.
