The 8.5" Knife and Scraper is an essential clay tool for ceramic artists. It has a sharp and pointed angle at one end for cutting, slicing, and trimming the bottom foot of the throwing pots while they are on the potter's wheel. The opposite end has a wide-angle edge for cleaning and scraping clay off the wheel head without damaging it. It is handcrafted by skilled artisans from premium quality imported German Beechwood.
