Svante Djarv Engraving Knives are a perfect tool for fine engraving and Kolrosing. Designed for push cuts using the tip of the blade, the broad width allows the knife to be held close to the cutting edge for close control.
Variations:- Engraving Knife - Oblique Shaped (13x32mm), this tool is ground only on the tip with a forward facing blade, much like a double bevelled chisel. This is perfect for square edged cuts.
- Engraving Knife - Knife Shaped (14x34mm), This blade has a wide bevel at the tip, like the oblique variation, but also has an edge down one side providing one rounded tip and a longer cutting edge. This option is perfect for engraving curved shapes.
