Scraping Knife 4 cm Don Carlos

The Kratzmesser 4 cm Don Carlos from F. HERDER is a specialised deglazing and stripping tool, specifically developed for the demands of the glazier and painter trades. Its very short, wide blade sits almost directly on the handle, ensuring that the pressure from your hand is transferred to the cutting edge with virtually no loss. This allows you to work efficiently and precisely.

The blade is straight-set and robustly designed, which facilitates the flat removal of old putty, paint, or sealant without the blade flexing or twisting. The stainless steel version also ensures high resistance to moisture and solvents, increasing the tool's longevity. This scratching knife is ideal for professionals and demanding DIY enthusiasts who value precision and robustness.

The walnut wood handle is curved and features a distinct thumb hollow. This ergonomic shape allows you to apply targeted pressure to the blade with the palm of your hand, rather than just pulling. The blade bears the engraving Friedr. Herder Abr. Sohn, the markings SOLINGEN GERMANY STAINLESS, the spade symbol with the inscription PIKAS, and the series inscription Don Carlos. Manufactured by F. HERDER in the traditional knife city of Solingen, this tool stands for the quality standard that has distinguished the brand since 1727.

To ensure the longevity of your scraper knife, clean the blade thoroughly after each use. Wipe it with a damp cloth to remove any residue of putty, paint, or sealant. Ensure the blade is always stored dry to maintain its rust-resistant properties. The scraper knife is not suitable for dishwashers. The walnut wood handle benefits from occasional oiling to preserve its natural beauty and resilience.
