HANDLE

Rough Black®

Our Rough Black handles are a synthetic variety that began being used when traditional handle materials were scarce during war years.

BLADES

Spear

The Spear blade features a symmetrical shape with a stronger blade tip for piercing. This heavy-duty blade is a favorite with farmers and anyone else with some tough cuts to make.

Sheepfoot

The Sheepfoot blade features a straight edge and a curved back, allowing for greater tip strength and control of the cutting edge with your fingers. Originally designed for trimming sheep’s hooves, this blade is ideal for carving and carpentry work.

Pen

The Pen blade shape was originally designed to cut and sharpen turkey quills for use as ink pens. Today, it still makes a great blade for light-duty work.

Coping

This is used commonly in carpenter’s knives to scratch lines in wood or other materials. It is also used for carving and whittling.
