Shop Marking Knife, Woodworking Project

Japanese-style marking have right or left beveled edges and steep angles, giving them a really sharp point — perfect for accuracy. However, one drawback is that they don’t come with handles, so they’re awkward to hold onto. To solve this problem, I made handles to give me better control when I use them. The blade is sandwiched between two wood blanks. The copper rings, or ferrules, on the ends not only help hold it together, but give the project the look of a traditional Japanese woodworking tool. A set screw holds the blade in the handle. It grips the blade firmly, yet allows you to easily change blades or remove the blade for sharpening. In addition, you can flip the blade around and slide the beveled end of the blade into the handle when you’re not using the knife.
