STRYI Profi Swallowtail Chip Carving Knife 35mm: Compact Tool for Geometric Patterns and Fine Contours

The STRYI Profi Swallowtail Chip Carving Knife (Art. 390035) is a specialized professional tool designed for chip carving, where clean geometric shapes and thin contour lines matter most. Its unique swallowtail design, developed by the experienced carver Adolf Yurev, together with the short metal part makes it one of the safest tools for chip carving. It is the perfect choice for cutting chip patterns, triangles, rhombuses, and thin lines of contour drawings.

Why Professionals Choose the STRYI Swallowtail Knife:

Easy Technique for Geometric Shapes Triangles and rhombuses are cut step by step, tilting the bevel and using only the heel of the blade. The short 0.98" (25mm) metal part keeps your hand close to the cutting edge for safe, controlled work. Combined with a gouge and a V-tool, this knife lets you build more complex chip carving patterns. A video instruction is available on request.

Premium W1-7 High-Carbon Steel Chip carving requires an edge that stays sharp through long sessions. Made from W1-7 high-carbon steel with a 5/64" (2mm) metal thickness and hardened to a professional 58-62 HRC (Rockwell), this knife holds its keen edge longer than mass-market tools. The polished 60° bevel arrives sharpened and ready to use.

Ergonomic Oak Handle Precision starts with comfort. The short 3.1" (80mm) handle is made from genuine oak and treated with natural linseed oil, giving you a secure, non-slip grip and full control during long carving sessions.

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!
