The bowmakers knife is essentially a longer edge single bevel kiridashi, with the bevel angle ground and flattened to 70 degrees for use on harder woods like pernambuco. Like most of my edged tools, these knives are constructed with hardened steels on the edge and side, with softer steel in the middle of the bevel for ease of sharpening. Brine quenched for optimal hardness.
Edge steel: Yasuki White Paper #2
Dimensions*: Length ~160mm Width ~16mm Thickness ~3mm
If you're looking for different dementions in your bowmakers knife in our laminated design, ask and we can talk about making a custom order for you!
Most tools are shipped with a rough grind and will require a proper setup by the user to their preferences.
DISCLAIMER: Our tools and knives are very pointy. They can potentially hurt people, and we don't want them to. It's our job to forge it, but YOURS and YOURS ALONE to exercise caution and correct usage of our knives.
