Carving tools and knives for wood, school and outdoors

Carving knives and pocket knives for woodworking

You need carving tools and knives in shop class, in the craft workshop or outdoors, when branches and pieces of wood become spoons, figures or roasting sticks. The category includes carving knives and pocket knives as well as spare parts and accessories.

How to find the right knife

In the Pocket Knives & Carving Knives subcategory, you'll find carving knives with wooden handles, folding knives, multi-tool knives and children's pocket knives with a rounded tip. A rounded tip makes sense for beginners and children, because it's less likely to stab if the knife slips. Fixed-blade carving knives sit securely in your hand and are good for longer sessions, while pocket knives are handy on the go. Under Spare Parts & Accessories, you'll find genuine spare parts for Victorinox pocket knives. A sharp blade is always important: a dull knife takes more force and slips more easily.

Tip: Always carve away from your body and keep your free hand behind the blade. Soft, fresh wood such as linden or willow is easiest to work when you're starting out.
