Special edition “Dymalux” handle Silvern Wood Carving Knives are made using O1 tool steel and “micarta”-style bolsters for extra stability. The heat treatment is done in-house, resulting in Rockwell hardness of 60-62. The knives are 1/16″ thick and vary in length and width depending on the style. All knives are ground flat with a slightly convex secondary bevel that you can customize to your preference. All handles measure 5″ in length and around 3/4″ in thickness.
Select a handle shape from the drop-down list to preview the handle shape in hardwood, although this listing is for Dymalux handles (I just love the pictures my friend took of these).
The general use knife is created to be balanced between a detail knife and a roughing knife. The blade is 1.5″ or 1.75″ long. Perfect for most projects and people of all skill levels.
The detail knife is created to be used for fine detail. The blade is 1″ long. Perfect for smaller projects and more advanced carvers.
The roughing knife is created to remove material faster, due to the longer blade length and width . The blade is 2″ long and about 0.5″ wide. Perfect for larger projects and more advanced carvers.
All carving knives with custom handles are made to order.

Wonderful and Beautiful knife for whittling! They slice through wood with ease and are sturdy enough for me to use on my harder woods like Cherry. Absolutely something that I will keep in my wood carving tool kit.

I got a 2″ bladed knife with the oval Dymalux handle to go with my other Silvern knives in various blade lengths and handle materials. This is a beast of a knife! The 2″ blade has more height (width) than the shorter blades, giving it additional strength needed for a blade this long. The proportions of this blade just look right and make you want to cut wood. Another beautiful and useful tool from Ken!

I got the 1.5″ with the crescent dymalux handle.
The Knife comes sharp and it has good edge retention also the Blade is very thin which makes it cut well through softer woods.
The handle is very comfortable and fits my hand nicely also the dymalux looks beautiful. This quickly became my favourite whittling knife!
Delivery to germany was surprisingly quick.

Amazing quality. I have nearly everyone’s knives as I collect them like pieces of art. This is top-notch, professional quality. I love the Silvern Handle shape. The narrow section of the handle, at the blade end, allows for easy turning and the curves along the rest of the handle provide a comfortable grip. Very happy with the shape/size/width/edge of the blade itself.

My new favorite knife! It’s remarkably thin and flexible. It beats out anything I’ve owned so far!

These carving knives are beautiful and more importantly are sharp right out of the box and hold a great edge. They are my new favorite knives, and the handles are very comfortable, so I can carve many hours at a time.
