Great grafting knife
Well made, durable, sharp edge that stays sharp. Single bevel, which is essential for grafting. The shape of the blade, rectangular with a beveled edge on the blunt side, works great for both grafting and removing loose bark, a handy tool when looking for codling moths. There are less expensive knives, but the quality of this one makes it a great value for the money.

It’s sharp with a quality feel
Great knife for grafting! It’s sharp and easy to handle while I’m gardening. The blade is stainless steel and it’s easy to maintain. I bought a less expensive knife before this one and had to return it because it was not sharp enough. This one is perfect for grafting mango trees!

Bark LIfter?
I am new to grafting and decided to purchase this knife as it has a bark lifter and single sided cutting edge. I tried it out and found that I could simply use a desposable razor blade knife (cheaper) to do veneer and stump grafting. I see why a single side cutting edge would be beneficial in making shallow cuts, but I was able to control a double sided blade and do the same thing. The knife is a well made knife. Very solid and good quality. However, the blade does not securely lock into place so when one uses the bark lifter one has to hold onto the blade itself to pry open the cambium layer. This exposes your fingers to a very sharp blade. If you held onto the handle portion the blade while twisting and prying with the bark lifter it can snap shut possibly catching flesh on it's way. It scared me enogh to not use the lifter. I instead purchased a two pack of micro lab spoons. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XJPJJM3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title) . Search Amazon for lab spatulas. The bowl shape of the spoon forces the bark open with the flat side of the spoon being pushed downward into the cambium layer.

Good enough for pecan 4 flap graft
I got my dad one for Father's Day. After sharpening it up good we used it on some pecan trees and had good results. Id say where technique is most important, it helps to have the right tool. If it is good enough for nut trees, it'll do whatever. You should get it real sharp for nice clean cuts.

Don't bother with cheaper knives
This is a great value and terrific tool, sharp and ready for use out of the box (unlike others I've tried). Yes, the single-sided bevel takes some getting used to, but as the experts say, it gives a straight cut every time. Takes some getting used to having to cut into you for some cuts, but patience and care plus practice does the job. I recommend you add the bark lifter to your kit (second from left in my photo), along with the pruner and flower knives. The bark lifter (not available at Amazon right now, for some reason) is a must-have for any under-bark graft job.

I like the fact the blade is on the slim side, the side of the blade is nice for pealing the bark before inserting a bud/scion. It came sharp but with a small carbide sharpener, it's now razor sharp.

Likes -Sharp 1-sided blade produces smooth, even, level cuts on cherry scions -thin polished bark lifter for lifting bark with minimal to no tearing -good detents to keep knife semi-locked open -red color for ease of spotting if dropped on ground -solid construction Dislikes -back of blade juts out of handle in closed position which may be a bit worrisome it could open while in the pocket but the spring seems to be strong enough to hold it in closed position. Very minor dislike really I also have the black-handled victorinox grafting knife with a separate redundant brass bark lifter. It's good also but this red one seems to make smoother cuts.

Premesso che ho ponderato a lungo che marca di coltello da innesto comprare, alla fine ho deciso per questo Victorinox (marcato Felco). dire eccellente è poco. il coltello molto solido e compatto senza nessun gioco della lama è veramente pregevole. La lama è affilata a rasoio se non avessi timore potrei anche sbarbarmi. da maneggiare con estrema cautela vista l'affilatura.come sempre Victorinox mantiene standard elevatissimi di qualità sugli acciai adoperati per le sue lame oltre che per l'assemblaggio che come detto prima non presenta il ben chè minimo gioco , un mio pensiero (non è una critica) avrei studiato la possibilità di bloccare la lama vista l'affilatura evitando che chiudendosi accidentalmente ci si possa ferire.
