The Shipley Knives were by far our best selling carving knife. For the last few years they have been discontinued but recently they were re-introduced by OCC Tools. This new generation of knives are made from O1 tool steel and go through a unique tempering process. All the blades have a flatter grind which delivers a nice, easy cut! The handles are made from native Missouri Walnut. Try one of these carving knives and you will quickly become a fan and need one of each! Each and every OCC knife that we sell is made by Mike Shipley.
