Clarke Brothers Marking Knife and Real Leather sheath – Wood Marking Gauge – Premium Woodworking Tool with High Carbon Steel Blade – Quality with Sharp Blade – Beautiful Wooden Handle

This marking knife is not only aesthetically pleasing but solidly built. It retains an edge well (did not dull the few times I accidently cut into aluminum from the square I was using to guide the knife). It cleanly severs hard maple wood fibers with ease. The included leather sheathe is perfect, it fits well, stays on securely (to the point that I routinely put it on my pocket with no worries) and protects the blade and user from accidental cuts. Overall a fantastic product that I would have gladly paid twice the price for.

Good quality

Looks sharp, feels good in the hand. But the knife I received is COVERED in glue. 🤷‍♀️

This is my first marking knife and I love it. It is light weight, very sharp and helped create the start for my chisels.

Great workmanship on the knife. I really like having the leather sheath

It's an excellent tool in using it really makes a difference.

This made a great gift for my artist friend. They seemed to be happy with it.

The blade is very sharp straight out of the package, no sharpening needed. The handle may be a little large for anyone with small hands but should be adequate for most users. The inclusion of the leather sheath is an added bonus and also extremely well made. You may need to clean the blade before first use and you will want to make sure you stop the blade periodically, and give it a good wipe down with some mineral oil. You've taken care of this should last at least a lifetime.

Thought I'd pay the extra money to get a "good" knife with a sheath. After one simple carving of dried spruce there were several chips in the blade which obviously wasn't tempered properly.

I’ve loved this marking knife. Sharp straight out of the box. I’ve used it on Australian Jarrah one of the hardest woods in the world and it’s held its edge well. The flat bottom of the knife makes it great to snug up against your square and a good marking line to start chiseling. Lastly, it still looks beautiful years on!

Knife arrived and yes its very sharp. Very impressed with the quality. robert.
