Our Stub Sloyd knife has a shorter blade than our original Sloyd knife. With a 2-1/2" blade, you'll have more control for your smaller projects. Like our original Sloyd, this carving knife is a well-made tool, great for spoon carving, carving, marking, and general woodworking.
Its versatility allows for a wide range of projects, from detailing to roughing. Use it to shave bark or use the fine tip for eyes, noses, mouths, hair, facial details, and accent pieces.
The blade has no flex - making it sturdy and extremely reliable. Its rigidity allows for deep cuts and marks. The blade is thick along the spine, and the core is made of high-carbon steel. This results in a very hard edge for better edge retention. For added strength, the tang of each knife extends completely through the handle. The handle is made of beautifully conditioned cherry wood and features a brass bolster.
*The knife blade is hand-polished, not machine-stamped from a mold; blade length may vary.
