The O'SKOOL Marking knives are the unsung heroes of woodworking. Unlike pencils, which can leave imprecise or smudged lines, a marking knife carves thin, sharp indentations into the wood. These lines guide saws and chisels, ensuring clean, precise cuts. The dual bevel marking knife, in particular, offers unparalleled accuracy and versatility for intricate woodworking tasks.
The blade is flat on one side and beveled on the other.
The hallmark feature of this knife is its dual bevel blade. This design allows woodworkers to use it comfortably with either hand, making it ideal for both left- and right-handed users.
Versatile Use: Ideal for marking lines on both sides of a workpiece.
Fine, Crisp Lines: Perfect for intricate joinery, dovetails, and scribing.
The blade is crafted from High-Speed Steel (HSS), a material renowned for its toughness and resistance to wear. This ensures the knife maintains its sharpness through extended use.
Sharp and Reliable: Produces precise lines even on hard woods.
Resists Dulling and Rust: Built to withstand heavy-duty tasks and various environments.
