D shape tungsten carbide trimming tool is a very versatile trimming tool. It works great both for shaping foot rings and for general trimming. Its balanced shape provides good control and smooth clay removal during trimming. It is a reliable everyday trimming tool suitable for many different forms.
Design: Tool is made from 3 parts: Beech wood handle, brushed aluminum cap and Tungsten carbide blade.
Handle: The handle is turned by hand from Beech wood to assure its durability and great shape to match any hand. It sits nicely in your palm so you can grip it tightly for the best trimming results.
Blade: Blade is made from tungsten carbide which is one of the hardest metals. It doesn’t wear or dull like steel does and can be used without sharpening for a long time. It is sharpened to an angle so it cuts through clay like butter.
Caution: Blade is made from material which is very hard and durable, so it stays sharp for a long time, you can not bend it in the fingers. But because of this it is brittle and if dropped blades can shatter like porcelain. Don’t soak it in water, after using quickly wash it and wipe to dry.
Sharpening: The Tool is extremely sharp and durable, but after months of regular use it can slightly dull. To maintain it’s high trimming performance if needed use fine (400 grid or finer ) diamond file or if you don’t have one simply good sandpaper. File inner part as outer is beveled and doesn’t need sharpening.
