Delve into the world of crafting with the Svante Djarv Children's Carving Knife 15x50, a specially hand-forged tool conceived for the nimble hands of young woodworkers and aspiring carvers. Skilfully constructed to be both safe and effective, this carving knife will inspire creativity and precision in every carve, chisel, and cut.
Key Features:
- Compact Blade Design: Crafted from high carbon steel, the blade measures 50mm (2") in length and has a depth of 15mm (5/8") near the handle. Its 2.5mm thickness ensures durability and control during carving tasks.
- Ergonomic Handle: A beautifully shaped handle, made from premium Swedish elm, is integrated with a wooden finger guard, ensuring both safety and comfort. The handle is lightly oiled and ribbed, providing enhanced grip and manoeuvrability.
- Two Blade Types to Choose From: Depending on your preference, select between a safer, rounded blade tip or a more traditional pointy blade tip. Simply use the 'BLADE TYPE' drop-down box for your selection.
- Protective Leather Sheath: Each knife comes with a simple leather blade sheath, ensuring safe storage and added longevity to the blade.
- Ready for Crafting: While the knife arrives sharp and prepared for immediate use, a final hone from a responsible adult can further optimise its precision.
