OCC Medium Roughing Knife- 1 7/8"

Great Blade

As a beginner it feels good to finally have a knife that does what I hoped. Easy to control, stays sharp and handle fits me perfectly. I’m gaining confidence in my abilities.

Excellent knife, great service, would buy again!

Definitely one of my favorites, the blade is long enough for anything that I usually carve and slims down enough for all but the smallest detail work. As with all Occ knives it comes sharp enough to use, but a little work on your strop it cuts basswood like a raw potato.

This is a great knife. Great steel and I love the simple handle. It fits really well in my hand and is a little longer than most carving knife handles at 5 1/2" long.

My go to rough out knife, sharp and strong and easy to sharpen using a strop.

Excellent blade, sharp out of the box although I did some light stripping. Compared to my Flexcut pelican knife, it's about equal in overall cutting. I will say the OCC's slightly longer handle did give a little more leverage making cutting a little easier. The point is at a bit of odd angle but no big deal. We'll see how well it holds the edge.

needs very little honing and would be fine right out of the box, but I am picky. Handle is very long but very comfortable. I would but more of their knives
