Description
Using a special thick Swann Morton SM 01B
scalpel blade for superb rigidity and control when scraping.
So often when making reeds one reaches for a utility knife to
fine-tune the tip. Yes the utility knife is sharp but everything else is
wrong!…the handle is bulky, the blade, though sharp, moves about
and rattles, and you have to stabilize it with your thumb. Well with
OB3 Reed Tip Knife this has all gone. Its ergonomic handle nestles
comfortably in the hand, and it allows for precise tip finessing and
control through the knife's lightness of touch and feel. The utility
blade is locked in place with a screw that can be tightened with a utility
knife blade, and the resulting stability ensures your tip crafting is
in safe hands. The blade protrudes from the end giving you greater control
and visibility for scraping the tip of a reed. The screw cap on the bottom
reveals a perfect container for storage of your plaque so you never forget or
lose your plaque again. Ergonomically designed, and manufactured using the
latest 3D printing technology. This re-invention means the price is affordable
for all.
