The chip and detailing wood carving knife STRYI Profi (art.183810)

The STRYI Profi 1.5 in (38mm) Chip Carving Knife is a specialized tool designed for artisans who practice the art of geometric patterns and intricate detailing. Its unique blade geometry is optimized for clean, "glass-like" triangular cuts and fine decorative work. Whether you are decorating a traditional wooden box with chip patterns or refining the delicate features of a miniature sculpture, this knife provides the stability and surgical sharpness required for flawless execution.

Why Artisans Choose the STRYI 38mm Chip Knife:

Optimized for Geometric Precision The 1.5 in (38mm) blade is perfectly angled for chip carving. It allows you to apply precise downward pressure for "three-corner" chips while maintaining total visibility of your layout lines. This maneuverability makes it an essential tool for both decorative relief and detailed whittling where every millimeter counts.

Premium W1-7 High-Carbon Steel Consistency is key when carving intricate patterns. Forged from specialized W1-7 high-carbon steel and hardened to a professional 60-62 HRC (Rockwell), this blade holds its razor edge significantly longer than mass-market tools. It slices effortlessly through both softwoods like basswood and tough hardwoods like oak, reducing the need for constant honing.

Ergonomic Oak Handle Control starts with the grip. The handle is hand-crafted from genuine oak and finished with natural linseed oil. Its ergonomic design is built to sit comfortably in the hand for hours, providing a warm, non-slip surface that is essential for the steady, high-pressure cuts used in chip carving.

Ready to Use Out of the Box We respect your craft and your time. Every STRYI knife arrives professionally hand-sharpened and leather-stropped. There is no additional preparation or setup needed; you can move straight from the box to your most ambitious project with complete confidence in your tool's performance.

I've used a variety of knives, including those mentioned most by seasoned carvers; in my opinion, this ranks up there with those. It came sharp, and it strops up easily. I've enjoyed carving with this knife.

This is a great tool and is very well made. Arrived super sharp and highly polished. It cuts very well and very smoothly. It took about a 3 week to arrive to Alberta, Canada, but for the price it was well worth the wait. Thanks!
