BeaverCraft Wood Carving Knife C17P - Sloyd Chip Carving Knife Carbon Steel - Whittling Knives for Beginners and Professionals - Wood Whittling Tools Woodworking Palm Chisel

Well made fits in the Palm of your hand perfectly very sharp.

Very sharp right out of the box. I love the reach to get into tight places. Good quality blade. Great price. A good addition to my carving tools.

Seems like a nice knife for the money! A useful tool for detail work where a larger blade is appropriate. Haven’t used it enough yet to see how it holds its edge

A nice knife at a good price. So far it seems to hold a good edge (I have used it on somewhat harder woods than basswood) and it is doing fine.

This knife was purchased because it had a curved blade design however I spent many hours modifying it to my liking. The bevel was reshaped so the blade angle wasn’t so tall. Most of my carving knives are a flat grind and this felt bulky and very odd trying to use it as a skew tool . Blade thickness is 2 mm and I reground the cutting angle as well as the thickness of the spine. The result flattened the grind and made the knife feel way less bulky. The wooden palm handle has a flat side that rests against the palm of my hand and I radiused the corners so it felt smoother to my palm. Also sanded and smoothed the handle and added a few coats of tru oil to finish it off . Final modification was to grind the barb off the heel end of the cutting blade so i was less likely to cut myself during use and sharpening. After all the hours shaping and refining the blade and palm handle I ended up purchasing a Flexcut 5/16” angle skewer anyway hoping it fits my needs better. As it came from the factory it was not very useful to me . I would suggest this tool would be more usefull with a thinner blade with and flatter grind with the barb on the heel modified . I extensively reworked this tool.

Personally I didn't care for the handle so I remade it using cherry wood the blade came very sharp and like all beaver craft products is very high quality. I haven't used it much yet but I won't be disappointed.

Man I love this knife, I just wish it was sharper. Maybe if it was a flat grind.

Well made and very sharp.
