Why Choose Gold Steel-Black?
Gold Steel-Black is an advanced version of the legendary Gold Steel, renowned for its outstanding properties. Thanks to its homogeneous, fine-grained structure, this knife can be sharpened to an incredibly fine edge and retains its sharpness for an extended period—even when working with dense hardwoods like ebony.
- Maximum sharpness & durability
- Excellent edge retention due to fine steel structure
- Ideal for F-hole cutting, neck carving & bridge fitting
- Premium craftsmanship for professional violin makers
Rosewood Handle – Perfect Ergonomics & Safety
The 15 cm long, 2 cm wide, and 1 cm thick handle is crafted from fine rosewood, treated with natural linseed oil for a smooth and protective finish. Rosewood not only provides a comfortable grip but also offers optimal control for detailed carving work.
- Ergonomic design for precision work
- High-quality rosewood – durable & comfortable in hand
- Safe blade storage with a reversible function
A small brass set screw (hex key M1.5) securely holds the blade in place. The special reversible function allows you to store the blade inside the handle after use, protecting the cutting edge and reducing the risk of injury.
Note: The set screw should only be gently tightened to prevent damage to the glue joints.
