What Do the Numbers Mean on Pfeil Tools?
As a general guide, the first number in Pfeil tool sizes indicates the depth of the curvature (with higher numbers meaning deeper cuts), and the second number pertains to the size of the tool (with smaller numbers indicating more precision and smaller size). This means that tools like L 11/1 and L 12/1 would likely be used for more detailed and intricate work, whereas L 11/3 might offer a balance between detail and broader cuts.
- Materials: Chrome vanadium steel blades; hardwood handles.
- Design: Full bolster and square tang for enhanced stability; steel ferrule to prevent handle splitting.
- Hardening: Blades are electronically hardened to exacting tolerances.
