Engraving on both sides?

Pre-Order discount expires Sunday 10/13 at midnight.  Regular price will become active and the pre-order exclusive engraving option will no longer be available.

Whether you are marking out your joinery to ensure tight fitting dovetails or mortise and tenons, or chiseling the corners of a half-blind dovetail to ensure a perfect fit, this is the tool for you.

A perfect gift idea for the woodworking relative or friend in your life.

Our solid stainless steel marking knife details:

  • 1/8" thick x 5/8" wide x 5-7/8" long, easily fits in an apron and feels great in the hand.
  • Precision machined.  Variable width chamfers on the top and bottom sides allow for picking the knife up easily.  Plus they just look cool.
  • Satin finished for just the right amount of grip.
  • 2 holes, countersunk on the top and bottom.  One for hanging the knife up and the other acts as a gripping point for your finger and thumb. 
  • Where's the wooden handle you might be asking?  It would get in the way of marking out joinery in tight spaces and laying the knife flat in use.  Gripping the knife near the cutting edge also allows for much greater control.  Further, it can be sharpened in a honing guide such as the Veritas™ MKII.
  • Spear point is perfect for marking in either direction and fits into tight spaces.
  • Lapped flat back for using it as a chisel.  Excellent for chiseling into the inside corners of half-blind dovetails.
  • CPM MagnaCut hardened to Rockwell 62 has an excellent mix of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.  It has significantly higher wear resistance compared to 14C28N but is somewhat more difficult to sharpen.  Basically, you'll sharpen a lot less often, but when you do, it will take longer and you'll want to use diamond abrasives for the best results.
  • We machined and tested sample knives in several tool and knife steels including O1, A2, 1095, CPM-3V and originally found that Nitro-V was the optimal formula for a marking knife.  Since then, 14C28N has became readily available and has edged out Nitro-V as another excellent choice for marking knives.  CPM MagnaCut offers the ultimate in performance and is a fully made in USA knife (14C28N is made by Sandvik in Sweden).
  • Includes a vegetable tanned leather sheath made in house, complete with hammered copper rivets.
  • Also includes options for engraving patterns.  Patterns can be engraved on both faces or just the top face (except for 'Clean', which is only on top face)
  • Pre-orders, in addition to the standard engraving patters available, will have the option of a Pre-Order exclusive engraving pattern that will be finalized prior to the initial production batch being completed.  Customers will be emailed pictures of the new engraving pattern and will be asked if they want to change to it or keep the original option selected during checkout.
  • Note: pictures show original 'Nitro-V' engraved on knife, CPM MagnaCut knives will be engraved with 'CPM MagnaCut' 

Note on leadtimes: the current leadtime listed means that orders placed today are expected to ship within that amount of time.  It doesn't guarantee items will be in stock and ready to ship at that time in the future for orders placed then.  In other words, you may be waiting indefinitely if you wait to place an order until the leadtime is lasted as 'In stock, ready to ship'.  My goal is to have all standard products ready to ship but currently many of them are being built to order.


Leadtime: Ships in approx. 8 weeks.
