Czeck Edge Bird Cage Awls feature large handles with a lower finger perch that allows a tremendous amount of force to be applied comfortably for boring or marking in wood or similar materials. The square cross section of the blade, sharpened edges and pyramid point allow them to sever delicate wood fibres without splitting thin stock.
The square blade follows the traditional design in essence with two sizes offered, 3/16 and 1/4, the latter excelling for larger, more robust marking and boring tasks. They are made oftool steel hardened to RC 59 – 60 and precision ground and polished.
All Czeck Edge by Benchcrafted tool handles are CNC turned and hand polished using Liberty Wood, a material made from compressed layers of birch veneer, phenolic-resins and dye. Due to the arrangement of the wood layers and dye selections, Liberty Wood takes on a look that is nearly identical to many Rosewoods. Liberty Wood is extremely resistant to movement and abrasion, and takes a beautiful polish. No finish is applied, so there is none to wear off.
