BeaverCraft C8 Chip Carving Knife – Razor-sharp control for detail

The BeaverCraft C8 is your go-to for fine wood detail: lettering, geometric patterns, ornaments and crisp V-cuts. Its compact blade with a 3.6 cm edge gives maximum control on micro-cuts, so tight radii and clean edges come naturally — perfect for chip carving and decorative work.

Hardened carbon steel (~58 HRC) delivers assertive bite in soft and hardwood and holds an edge well. With a 12° bevel, the C8 cuts cleanly from the first pass; touching up or stropping is quick at the bench or in the field, keeping results consistent on repetitive patterns and line work.

The ash wood handle is oil-finished for natural grip and a relaxed hand position, letting you work longer with less fatigue. Its neutral shape makes the BeaverCraft C8 comfortable for left- and right-handed carvers, with excellent feedback on push and pull cuts.

If you need a light, responsive and reliable knife for decorative carving, the BeaverCraft C8 blends precision, control and easy maintenance — exactly what you need to lift your wood projects to the next level.
