Negative Rake Scraper for Smooth Finishing Cuts with a 1-1/4-Inch M42 High Speed Steel Blade and Round Tang

This negative rake scraper helps you make smooth finishing cuts, including on difficult grain structures. Its less aggressive cutting action makes the tool easier to maneuver when refining a surface.

The 1-1/4-inch blade uses M42 high speed steel with 10% cobalt for edge retention and cleaner cuts with less grinding. A 3/8-inch-thick blade and round tang provide strength and stability. Select the configuration that suits your setup: a scraper with a 16-inch handle, a 20-inch handle, a wooden handle adapter, or an unhandled scraper.
