Tools from my bench.

The marking knives, shop storage and finishing products I designed or chose for my own shop, plus the list of gear I reach for every day.

Damascus marking knives

A pencil line is a millimetre wide. A knife line is a groove your chisel or saw can register in. The Precision Edge is the everyday knife; the Toothpick reaches the places it cannot.
