Our tools are sharpened to a 20° bevel angle, making them ideal for carving soft wood. We do not recommend using them on hard wood, as the fine edge may dull more quickly with tougher materials. |
The C14 Bench Carving Knife is built for shaping, smoothing, and working out details right at your workbench (hence the name “bench” knife). With its medium-length blade, it has the right balance of strength and precision—wide enough for steady cuts, yet sharp enough to handle fine shaping and background work.
Made from 1066 high-carbon steel (57–59 HRC) with a Scandi grind, the blade holds its edge well and cuts cleanly through wood. At 2 mm thick, it’s tough enough for consistent use while still allowing controlled slicing and shaving cuts.
The handle, crafted from ash wood and finished with natural linseed oil, feels smooth in the hand and is shaped for comfort during long carving sessions. Its well-proportioned size provides a secure, natural grip for both right- and left-handed carvers.
This knife is a reliable all-around tool for traditional bench carving—perfect for leveling surfaces, refining forms, and reaching tighter spots where larger blades can’t.

We bought this to get started on some basswood carving and it works well. My husband and grandson both like it a lot. They've been carving up a storm. It's a nice way to relax.
Good knife for carving.

I got this to whittle on some mesquite for a project and Ive got to say I'm surprised, the extremely hard wood gets carved away like butter. No blade damage, quite pleased.
Highest quality for your dollar. I work a lot with wood, and this is what you want. Trusted seller.
Great little knife
Was not sharp when it arrived, bit after a good strop it's razor sharp. Works well, very happy with it as my first whittling knife.
The short blade and comfortable handle makes carving easy to do.
